Fall Creek Deer

how ever did you get them to stand still long enough to get off a shot? They always bolt when I raise the camera!

Actually, this isn't exactly the shot I wanted. If I'd been 10 seconds faster, they'd have been nose to nose. It was a drive-by shot, and in Fall Creek Falls State Park (Tennessee), the critters are pretty well used to vehicles on the road - until the cars stop, then they boogie. So, I had just enough time for one click, and it was damn lucky...
