Description

Four deer are captured walking through a dry, grassy meadow under the warm, low light of late afternoon. The scene features rolling terrain with dry vegetation in the foreground and a line of dark green trees forming a backdrop across the upper portion of the frame. Natural lighting casts soft highlights along the backs of the animals as they move across the landscape. The vertical orientation emphasizes the slope of the terrain and the height of the distant tree line. This natural history photograph was directed by Child.
