‘High Tea’ | Gordon the Stag

I named the Stag. I was spending most of the day with him, so why not?
Waiting for the right moment after watching him and his movements for this long I knew he would eventually reach up to another branch so I just waited in a spot for the right moment and here it is!

Outstanding

Thanks so much, Harry. Appreciate you taking the time to comment ☺️👍

Harry said it best, outstanding.
The image also makes one appreciate the opportunity and delight you had being there.

Kelly, that’s so kind - thank you! You’re right the experience of watching this stag for quite some time was fantastic as always. It was even better learning their habits, it made the shot a little easier to get. Knowing that I didn’t disturb the stag in anyway was also a big bonus. Thanks again, Kelly 👍

One of the most beautiful images I've seen in a long time...just exquisite..you're a star Mark 😁

What a compliment! Thank you so much, Tony! I’m glad it’s made an impact, thank you again ☺️👍

Staggeringly excellent!

I see what you did there… ha!
Thank you 👍

Excellent - thanks for your patience

Amazing. Great shot!

Thank you, Mark ☺️👍

awesome

Thank you, Adam ☺️👍

nice

Thank you ☺️👍

Gordon is awesome! I especially like how you composed this with the tree trunk anchoring the left side of the frame. So much better than it would have been with the tree trunk more centered. Great work!

Thanks, Tom ☺️👍

Thank you, Karmien! I’m glad you enjoyed it ☺️🙌
