While watching the birds in the woodland hide a Muntjack Stag visited to forage, I think he looks happy in the sun. It was also really close, no need to crop these!

Hanneke Van Camp / Natural Landscape Photography Awards

"Projects, Winner. Living Landscapes. “Ever since I first traveled to Sápmi, I’ve felt deeply connected to its landscapes and culture. It has become my part-time home—a place of incredible beauty but also of fragility, facing threats from climate change and exploitation. Through this project, I hope to share its unique diversity and invite others to reconnect with nature and the values it carries.”"

Rutting Call shows a red deer stag in Bradgate Park, Leicestershire. Taken by Jamie Smart, from the UK, it was highly commended in the under-10s category. She had to stretch up to avoid the long grass in the foreground spoiling her shot.

A Killarney Stag’s Portrait

We were lucky to spot this stag and a number of hinds as we entered Killarney National Park a few weeks ago. The light was terrible. It was just after sunrise and we were walking through a wood. I’m thrilled with this photo of a magnificent stag.

Here’s another photo of this stag.

The Forest Guardian

Early Saturday morning a few weeks ago we gathered to photograph deer as the sun rose. Walking through the forest in Killarney National Park we spotted a group of deer. The light was terrible. I’m sure this was shot at ISO 12800 to get a crisp image and I’m really happy with it.

This group of deer stayed in the forest away from curious humans for the rest of the morning, though we could hear this stag bellowing several times off in the distance.
