White-tailed deer have taken over the back woods now that the bears have (for the most part) cleared out for the season. This young female has become a regular. I wanted to create a different perspective so I put my camera on the ground in one of her favorite spots. She walked past in the perfect position with her eye visible and in focus. Nikon D810 with Nikkor 17-35mm lens (at 17mm) ISO 500, f/14 at 1/160th of a second, Cognisys camera box, remote trigger and flashes.
Wow! It is fair to say you could not have gotten this angle manually with your usual stealth approach! I love that the clarity is so great you can even se her whiskers! So so glad she didn’t step on the camera. Ah, life in the backwoods….

I like this, good idea.
I’ve always wondered what it feels like to be a pile of wet leaves that is about to be pooped on. Thank you sean.
Very Creative- merry Christmas 🎄
Nice work Sean!! Kudos.
Sure is different angle to see deer at while there eat your shrubs , but I still enjoyed their visits as you do
