Yet another technically fine image that falls well short of great due to lacking creativity. Perhaps that are other areas for you to shoot outside of this refuge?
This photo makes my heart hurt the more I look at it (in a good way). I live for my trips to the mountains where the elk are everywhere. If I weren't going back in 8 days (yayyy), this photo would make me so homesick for my mountains it would be hard to look at :)
Mega congratulations! This was my favorite #1 pick for this challenge!
I don't understand how people say this isn't rural! Living in the country, I remember many a breakfast where I sat on the front porch and saw scenes like this. This was my 10 and is an amazing capture! Beautifully done and definitely deserves the ribbon you earned.
Knew it was you Alex...I think the deer must know you by name by now...or maybe they are cardboard cutouts that you take out of the van everytime you go to Richmond...awesome mate. You are leaving us all behind in the ribbon chase

I knew this was your's from the get go. I don't know how long you really sit there waiting on these guys but it's well worth the wait. Congrats on another ribbon.
Wonderful mood captured in this image. In hindsight, I should have rated it higher. How on Earth could someone give this a one? I must be impossibly naive to think there are no voting trolls.

Ok, now move out of England to give us a chance on those beautiful photos. Or send the Richmond Park over here :)
Great photos, as always. Congrats on your ribbon!
you could make a book with all your shots of wildlife throughout richmond park. its awesome how many beautiful photos ops your have from such a place, i bet its sweet to be able to go to a park and just shoot amazing photos. you are truly a great photographer, thanks for your inspiration.
erm.. correct me if I'm wrong.. but I am pretty sure I heard from your own lips that you were done submitting Deer shots ;)~ Grins.. so much for that.. and why stop when you obviously have such a passion and talent for capturing them so beautifully!! Nice work Alex.. seriously another great shot.
It's amazing how close you got to the deer. I like how they're silhouettes, and the little pathway through the grass adds to the photo. This is awesome, congratulations!
I definitely need to visit this park when I get to London. Not to photograph it - you do that well enough for all of us - but just to see, enjoy, and relish the moments like this that you capture for us. I love that you kept them as silhouettes.
Wonderful sense of context. I love the lighting and the focus on the grass. Very nice sillouettes. Great background!!! Best of challenge so far for me.
Richmond Park? I can't quite make up my mind whether this counts as a rural landscape in my own personal classification system. That, though, is quite irrelevant, as it is an amazingly beautiful and evocative photograph that goes straight in to my favourites.
Great silouettes of the deer against the fog bank. It looks like you converted to sepia. That's fine, but I'd just like to see what it looks like in full color with saturated grass and sky. 8
Wow. This is really beautiful. Looks like alexsaberi in Richmond Park again. Just gorgeous. (I know after reading the scores thread that it's not Alex, but whoever this is did a very fine job indeed.)
very nice but too much foreground, I think it would be better cropped with just half of the foreground and just a little bit more space to the sides. But this will score pretty high, good luck.
This has to ribbon! The depth is wonderful. The foreground and layers of trees in the background are perfect! The foreground is so golden and soft. And the silhouettes of the deer are so sharp. It doesn't get better than this! 10
This is lovely. The layers of trees blending into the background are gorgeous. I love the crisp silhouettes of the deer antlers. If it were mine, I might've cropped it a bit off of the bottom but no points off.
