The Herd, a photo from London, England

Photographer's Note

Bushy Park in London is famous for its large population of red and fallow deer, less known for its equally photogenic old hawthorn trees.

Ciao Kasia
questa tua foto è molto suggestiva . La nebbia attraversata da questo sole molto pallido rende tutto sfumato ed irreale ed è molto bella la composizione con l'albero allargato all'intero fotogramma mentre ai suoi piedi il branco di animali pascola quietamente lasciando una senso di grande serenità.
Complimenti
Romano

Beautiful misty shot, Kasia. I assume this was a sunrise shot? There's a great sense of mystery and discovery to it, and the sun itself makes a beautiful focal point burning off the mist behind the branches of the tree. Wonderfully framed, and the herd of deer make a beautiful bottom layer with the antlers of the male mimicking the branches above. Perfect exposure - you really are great at this ind of shot in particular.

Czesc Kasiu,
atmosfera jaka tu uchwycilas jest rzeczywiscie niepowtarzalna i wyjatkowa.Mgla,pierwsze promienie slonca i zwierzeta poszukujace pozywienia(tak mi sie wydaje) to naprawde super zestawienie.No i do tego to drzewo-rowniez wygladajace dosc egzotycznie,zwlaszcza w Londynie.Mi swoim ksztaltem bardziej by pasowalo gdzies do afrykanskiego stepu.
Piekna kompozycja!
Zapewne nie wyspalas sie,ale bylo warto dla takiego zdjecia:)

Pozdrawiam serdecznie
Krzysiek

Hi Kasia
I'm very surprise to see a lot of deers in London. Your picture is wonderful with the fog and sunrise. That give a great atmosphere. Deers in backlight is very nice. Congratulations.

Hi Kasia

Superb atmosphere! the fog erases the backgrond and you only have light brown silhouettes against this rising sun.
Congratulations

Hello Kasia
The idea that this is anywhere near London seems to be preposterous, yet I know the area, and you have taken a beautifully atmospheric photograph of it. The early morning mist absolutely makes the shot (and may well help by obscuring unwanted detail in the background). I think I might have gone for a little more contrast, but that might just lose the wonderful cold atmosphere.
Regards
Will
