We have a lot of deer in our neighborhood. I walk Snowy every morning (and noon and evening) but it's unusual for
us to walk in the morning and not see deer somewhere on our walk. This shot, though, was from a noon walk.
Several deer were resting in the woods on the hill across the street from our driveway and I took Snowy in the house and grabbed
my camera to see if I could get a good shot. Amazingly, they were still there when I got back outside. I have a lot of deer
photos taken in various places on our lot and around the neighborhood, but I really like the light/shadows in this one and the fact they were looking right at me.
