    Lovely pose from this White Tail Buck, mouth slightly open, beautiful eyes. Well captured and I like the vegetation 'framing' the subject, but again I think there's too much empty space at the top.
    Well exposed, colours look good to me, FG is very pretty with those OOF flowers. I quite like the orange in the BG, adds to the image. I would back off a tiny bit on the sharpening on the forehead.

    Have a great rest of the week and thank you so much for sharing, John!

    Kind regards,
    Gabriela Plesea

    I like the framing with the vegetation John, but less so the orange on the RHS of the face. PP looks better but you need more NR for the BKG and agree with Gabriela, too much dead space at the top.
