Crazyass Deer

by dave on Jan.19, 2009, under Photography

So, after the entire day of shooting and crawling around in the snow, I take all my gear off, peel off all the layers and I’m down to my base layer. Soaking in sweat, and just crap piled all over in my car. Ate a totally frozen taco. so good. Getting dark so I pack it in and start heading home. Decided to stop at the bathroom. When I opened my door, this crazy ass deer buzzes me. I literally dove back into my car and came out shooting. Luckily it was set to something near useable. ISO was at 800, f/2.8, and I rolled it up to about 1/500 to get this shot. I wish the ISO had been lower, but it doesn’t change too quickly. Deer had heard my shutter, stopped running, turned around, and walked back up to me. I know it’s a park deer…but this park is heavily hunted. Strange.  Oh yea… Also had to spend 10 minutes looking for my keys after she left.  Seems I just dropped everything when I dove back in for my camera :) ok. enough jabber.

While I was out last night, I decided to go to the Frog Pond in the Boston Common.  Got about 300 shots, but this was the only one that I liked enough to post, and it was just a happy accident.  I am definitely going to need a flash if I plan on taking pictures of people at night.
