Beautiful deer...running lightly across the street. Amazingly caught in flight. Thanks for sharing.<3

Oh my!...they never cross by the deer signs!....that is too funny....you have me cracking up over here...best one I saw and read all day. Perfect for this shot. Speaking of which...how in the world did you ever manage to get your camera out and take this shot, so fast?

vivian,
that is exactly it. i didn't have to get my camera out and take this shot fast. all i had to do is aim and fire. i was already anticipating action based on my surroundings. i don't recommend this but i drive very often holding my camera in shutter priority, ISO 200, ready to fire at 1/400th of a second. it's exactly like a gun fight to me. finger is on the trigger. anything moves ... it dies. well, i would never kill one of those things. i'd probably start crying and then my boys would have to beat me up a bit.

Your boys would have to beat you up for crying....you crack me up, Stephen, that's too funny. Yeah, I kinda figured you were ready with your finger on the trigger....good for you! And us...we get to enjoy your efforts...thanks!

Amazing clarity for an action pix. I've just reset my camera as I head out the door. Hope I find something to practice on. Thanks for the advice.
