Photographing Wild Deer

Photographing Wild Deer - A Field Guide


The objective of this field guide is to equip the budding deer photographer with the necessary knowledge to be successful when working with this elusive mammal with highly tuned senses.


The book has been structured so that you can learn how to watch deer before you try to shoot them with your camera of choice. 


The key to successfully photographing any wild animal is to understand your subject. So I cover the relevant aspects of biology and behaviour as well as the field skills necessary to take great shots without harming the welfare of the subject.


The species I focus on primarily in this book is the Roe deer - they are arguably the most elusive of the native wild deer in the British Isles and notoriously difficult to photograph. 


The skills necessary to photograph these secretive deer will stand you in good stead for photographing any other member of the deer family as well as many other wild animals.
