    Hi John, good behaviour on display. I like the feeding pose and the up-turned head with that large eye makes this image. I would like a bit more room in-front and behind and less below.

    I like the composition, well focused good DOF, pleasing colours and a behavioural shot too. I suspect a lowering of luminosity on the antlers would be beneficial.
    The coat seems quite golden/orange brown, was this due to the lighting conditions?

    Overall the image is looking a lot better John, I would crop just above the green, OOF veg at the foot.

    Hi John ... the pose is a bit awkward and the BG a tad busy .
    If the BG would be cleaner it might work better .
    From the technical aspect you done quite well , looks good.

    TFS Andreas
