One again, Dwayne,

A delicate representation of the dear in its habitat. The detail in the grass and trees is lit just right for it to have significance but not shout at us or take away from the deer itself, camouflaged in the background. This balance has a sensitivity which gives us a tranquil mood. Still, as the deer is visible to us, it has a sense of vulnerability. It's this which adds a dimension of empathy from us as we too are vulnerable.

The underexposure and lowering of the clarity slider(?), make this a very ethereal looking shot. Nice one.

The wondering I have is how this can be printed?

Dwayne,

Do you have to brighten the image in order to get it to print and show as well as on the screen. This picture would seem to be a hard picture to print because it's so subtle, delicate and ethereal!

So what's your approach and what paper do you use?

This is very nice, Dwayne. Rachel's description nailed it- just lovely.

Thank you very much for the comments everyone !!
No tripod, (1/30 @ 200mm) only made possible using VR technology.

Asher I just print as is and send the file to the lab. In the future I want to try large
real watercolor paper as a print and see how my work would look.

Take care,
Dwayne Oakes
