Taken on slide film which I still occasionally use, despite being mostly digital nowadays.
This was a lucky encounter one early morning with a herd of Fallow Deer. These beautiful timid creatures live in old woodlands, and are hard to spot. I was up before dawn broke to find them, and was lucky to catch them in the golden light of the newly risen sun.
