    A nice winter environs image Jack, I like the snow and the intent look on the Doe. Its a bit tight for my liking and you could open up a bit more detail in the eyes.
    Thanks for sharing.

    Hi John - The heavier snowfall really adds to this image as does the eye contact. This has a colder, darker winter feel to it from the tones. I do wish for a little more room below.

    TFS,

    Love the falling snow/wintery look here John, and would also like a tad more lower room if you have it?

    You have these deer shots well and truly sewn up, John. This one looks pretty good. The pose and falling snow are really nice and detail on the coat great. I wonder if a touch less contrast on the head would help lift the blacks a little there?

    Hi John, agree on being a bit tight, again more room at the foot. The BKG is what it is but the snow laden branches are a wee bit distracting perhaps?, but nothing you could have done, like the head on POV. Falling snow adds atmosphere, but the image just looks flat with not much 'Tonal contrast' to create depth.

    TFS
