Nature: Deer

A couple blocks from where we live, the mountains meet the street. And sometimes if you get lucky the wildlife meets the city. Usually in Southern California the wildest it gets is squirrels. But at the top of this street the deer from the local hills like to come down an put on a show.

I had seen two boy deer when I drove by earlier and when Doug mentioned taking the dog on a walk around the neighborhood I couldn't help but bring my camera in hopes that the deer were still there. Unfortunately the boys weren't around, but six of there girlfriends were!

They were amazing. I could practically walk right up to them and pet them! They were just so beautiful!

I've never done textures before, so I thought I'd give it a try! Thoughts?
