Had a walk around Margam Park with an old friend to see if we could photograph some deer. We got lucky...

I like 2 & 6 the best, no 1 looks like it has a snout sticking out of it's ar*e I like the depth of field on no 2 especially.

The others are a little too cropped for me as I like to see animals in their surroundings, even if it's just a field.

I once had a venison burger at the Royal Show, well it was hardly a burger, more like a steak in a bun, it was very tasty.
