This pretty little lady was in full shade with the sun behind her. I was able to get a nice exposure by using a light modifier - our house. The sun reflected off the side of our house onto the doe and I'm happy with the result. So all you have to do is make sure the subject is in your yard, or take your house with you...

Thanx for looking, and as always, C&C appreciated ~ Ron

Cutie for sure Ron and that's a HUGE light box you have

Tom

A dandy image, Ron.
Be proactive: Buy a motorhome with soft-white sides, drive around until you see a dear deer, lure it to the best place with natural but especially tasty foods, and click away.
Or- like you- sit on your butt waiting for something to happen .

I've used reflections for walls previously too Ron. The can make for great light sources. Nice shot.

Lovely shot Ron. Perfect exposure
David

Nice cutie. Good job from your part.

Jude

Hmmm, moving your modified light box might be tricky. She is sweet,
Nancy

Birdie

Nicely done Ron,

Mark

Hey Charlie - I wasn't sitting on my butt - oh wait - I was sitting on my butt...

Thanx Ken. I will have to pay attention now as I don't normally shoot the deer when back lit, but it worked out nicely.

Thanx Chris. I'm not sure how cleaver it was, but I'll take it.

Thanx - Adorama is probably much cheaper than mine.

Ron

No lighting problem here and a cute shot for sure.
