A few shots from an autumn trip to the New Forest a couple of weekends ago. Nothing I'm happy with photographically, it was dreary weather and not much rutting going on, but thought I'd post something since I haven't posted much lately ... or this whole year!?
On the excuses front; - I'm back to running quite a bit, although missed out on a London Marathon place for 2017 (again), my self-build workshop is now well underway .. which may even double as a space to do some still life studio photography eventually .. and I now have a beehive, so have been spending quite a bit of time figuring out how to make those little bees happy.
With any luck I will get my Italy tour photos processed this month, since I have a wedding at the end of the month that will consume all my spare time for a good while.

| High ISO, teleconvertor, drab lighting, boring surroundings, but a handsome stag and the pose is ok .. :o) |

| We did a pretty darn good job of being stealthy and not disturbing the deer, an unfortunate side effect of the Autumnwatch effect flooding the forest with wannabe photographers - like me, but demonstrating much less care. This guy however did sense us and stopped to check us out momentarily. I didn't feel like we interrupted their behaviour and they barely reacted to us, so I hope we were deer friendly low impact visitors. |
