      i saw a doe munching on grass as i turned off the pavement and drove a mile to this spot and read maps while waiting on the stars. at one point i look up and was startled to see a doe 10 feet from my car! hello:)

      she ambles down the canyon so i get out to see where she went.... as i close the car door i hear a series of crashing branches and very loud huffing noises that deer don't usually make since they're so dainty???

      the huffing slowly recedes into the distance and continues longer than my comfort zone allows so i hid my chicken strips in the glove box and gradually became un-skeered. a few hours later i was looking at this shot on the lcd and noticed..... the SAME doe looking in my window from 5 feet away! i moved well out of range...

      A very beautiful image! :-)
      I need to get out and try more night shots, we don't have bear here so I won't have to worry about that part! :-)

      Maybe the deer wanted some chicken strips too! One great vacation shot from many to come!

      Gorgeous moon and stars shot. I get a little worried myself when I hear strange crashes and huffing in the bushes. I'm always on the lookout for Bigfoot at night. :)

      I see trouble on the way. :)

      That was a deer story. The suspense was more than I could bear. But that is because a saw a bad moon rising.
