Steve, I like the colors-beautifully rendered grasses under the deer-and comp on this one. The moment of confusion is well captured. I like it as presented, but lightening or removing the darker clumps of brush in the BG might make it pop more.
Hi Steve, I like the protruding tongue from the Doe on the left, and I feel a central placement wouldnt harm this. Both are nice and sharp, and the BG doesnt bother me either.
