Wild Stags

I just love the raw simplicity here. The positioning of the subject leaves a lot of negative space, which enhances the photograph and the scale of the almost invisible snowy landscape. The viewer can feel the cold, feel the isolation, and certainly feel the wilderness without even showing it. Lovely work.

The sharpness of the two bucks draws the eye in, and the positioning of them keeps its focus. A rare moment to witness, it has been beautifully captured. The depth of field, light, and eye-catching subject make for a mesmerising image. Beautiful, nice work!

This image fits the category to a tee, Wild and Stags in abundance. The silhouetted stags on the rocks create epic scale with the backdrop of big moody clouds, and portrays perfectly the vast wilderness where these beautiful creatures live. A cracking image, well done.

I shuffled my Top 10 around a lot before making my final decision, but this image was always at number one for me. Beautifully composed and sharp, the image tells a story. The frost and subtle side light enhance what I think is a simple, yet outstanding image. Congratulations!

This is a quiet and magical moment perfectly captured. The mist creates some lovely separation with the far trees and the small dirt track leads the eye nicely to the deer crossing through the clearing in the trees. Full of atmosphere, a very special image. Congratulations.
