This photo keeps popping up...hauntingly beautiful. I grew up in Maine and had countless encounters with deer--this in an exception.

Scott, This is an incredibly outstanding photograph! To be able to capture such a wonderful animal against the brightness of the moon in low light......well....you've definitely got some great photographic skills! Voting for the overall image, beautiful composition, one of a kind shot and level of difficulty!!!! Way to go! v/f/g+1 and voted in contest.

The shot came at the tail end of a ten mile round-trip hike up a mountain and required a half-mile sprint to get in to position just in case the deer would line up with the rising moon. Definitely my favorite photo... Thanks very much.
