Early Morning White-Tailed Buck

Location: Pinellas, FL

Gallery Categories: Mammals

The sun wasn’t up yet, and I had only seen does in the field on Saturday morning. But I figured I’d take my stool and sit out in the middle of the field in hopes that the big guy might show up. Less than five minutes later, he emerged from the tree line, and while there was very little light, this shot was taken at 1/125, f/8, ISO 32,000! He paused just long enough for me to capture this image, and just as the sun started to crest over the trees behind me, he made his exit!
