Its 6.30 am and its still dark, I’m at Bradgate Park for a deer photographic workshop organised by Danny Green a Canon Ambassador, Danny has recently returned from Finland photographing Brown Bears so I’m hoping to learn a few tips and tricks
As always I forget something, this time a head torch. I tag along the back of the group trying not to stumble as we make our way into the darkness, after what maybe a kilometre we stop and wait for it to get light, maybe we could have started a little latter ?
Red and Roe Deer can be heard bellowing out their rutting calls and Tawny Owls are still calling in the now twilight. Soon it’s light enough to start looking suitable subjects, unfortunately it’s not cold enough for those classic shots where the deers breath can be seen in the cold morning air as the sun light is breaking through, maybe on another occasion.
Through out the day we have the opportunity to photograph deer in natural undulating countryside albeit the light wasn't at it best but thankful the forecast of rain didn't materialise
