Description As the evening light bathed the stag.
As the stag bellowed his voice out.
The starlings all flew up and I caught this moment.

beautiful shot

one interpretation; it's scaring them off
another; it's trying to eat them.

great shot though, nice job capturing it

All photography is a happy accident, but the more you prepare, the more you practice, the more you plan and the more you shoot, you have more "happy accidents"

Thank you Val. I notice a few of your great images were also taken around the same area as mine were.

awesome, you work so hard at being in the right place, right time - do you have a life outside photography (he asks jealously) ?

q-118 In reply to chillipope [2011-10-14 08:10:15 +0000 UTC]

I work at least six days a week Tim! I managed to snatch a couple of hours off on the evening I made this image.
Yes you're right, I do really think about where I need to be to get the image I want, on this occasion I was actually aiming for more of a sunset than a backlit, but it came out okay I suppose.

The Stag is calling for them to go!

The clarity of this just really makes this, looks great. The bars at the top and bottom are an interesting take though.
