This is the doe who was munching on some grass with her twin fawns that I came across the other day while driving to town. She took off across the field with the young ones, so I caught her in action and liked the shot, hand held with my Sigma 150-500 lens. You can see the frost in the foreground and background as she jumps into an area the sun had already touched. I loved the three effects.
