This is the best I can do for removing post. I have no idea how to clone out the last little bit.

Re: Fallow Deer Stag
Steve, I'm a relative beginner. Your capture is very beautiful but might be even more stunning if you cropped out the piece of wood along the right side? Great photo! Stu

Re: Fallow Deer Stag
I like the PP you have done in this one Steve...somehow I have been gearing towards warmer colours and this one has got it made...even if the eyes looks a bit confuse here...I mean the stag's not your shot...

Re: Fallow Deer Stag
That's a beautiful animal in beautiful light. But, yes, definitely get rid of the post by cropping, cloning or any combination thereof.

Re: Fallow Deer Stag
Lovely light and nicely handled techs. I've never seen one of these guys. The antlers look like a mix of moose and caribou.

Re: Fallow Deer Stag
Great shot!
Why is it 90% of all deer, whether it be a stag or doe that are photographed always look like they have only three legs? They do tend to stand whereby one of the back legs is hidden.

Re: Fallow Deer Stag
Do you know I have never noticed this before and have looked at all my deer photos and unless they are walking all bar a couple have got 3 legs showing. I think I am going to become paranoid about getting 4 legged standing deer. I do have some with only two legs even weirder.

Steve, while I still haven't mastered my photo post processing software, hopefully this is ok. Stu

Re: Fallow Deer Stag
Beautiful image! The light is especially lovely. It looks to me like you did a fine job of cloning out the piece of wood on the side.

Re: Fallow Deer Stag
I think you have accomplished crisp focus and shallow DOF perfectly for this shot, and agree with all the praise about light and warmth.
