In the Woods [Contest Finalists March 2006]
Uploaded: March 03, 2006 04:12:25
Taken on a dirt road through Byrdcliffe Arts Colony in Woodstock, NY 8/04 This fawn crossed my path, slowly, munching on leaves, and in no hurry so close to me. I took several pictures, moved to the left a bit to get another angle and startled it's twin, who was lying next to a rock. I had no idea the 2nd one was there. A truly spellbinding moment.

so preety ,excellent catch ,love this Claudia! #2491630Nadya Johnson March 03, 2006
Another absolutely captivating image, Claudia! This is gorgeous.Such clarity. Almost translucent, like a "fairie deer!" Love the texture, smoothness, lighting and effects. As for an "old photo" -- ? A photograph once taken, is Forever. Otherwise, they could take down the work of Ansel Adams, Diane Arbus, etc. etc. etc. No such thing as an "out of date" photograph, as far as I can see! They transcend time and space. This one does, and is just so excellent! #2491734Anna Diederich March 03, 2006
Incredible capture Claudia!!Anna #2491740

This is a FABULOUS shot, Claudia :o)!!!! The coloring and detail is perfect. I agree with Anna, this is an incredible capture! #2491804Lynn D. Wiezycki March 03, 2006
Great image! Normally we want our subjects to stand out from the background but fawns are supposed to blend in. Your capture is clear but shows how the coloring works to help protect them. #2491832Shelly A. Van Camp March 03, 2006
