This image of three deer was taken in Montana with a telephoto lens. We scared them off when we first saw them and were lucky enough to find them over the next ridge. There were several others including a few bucks nearby. They crossed the road 100 yards or so in front of us and bolted up a mountain.
Montana is full of wildlife photographic opportunities. In the same weekend, we saw deer, antelope, moose, elk, and bison.

This photograph was taken in Montana in September of 2008. We tracked these deer for a few miles until they were close enough that we could get a decent shot of them. I used a 500mm telephoto lens to capture this image although I almost missed it because they were really fast.
Wildlife photography is my favorite type because it's a challenge to track and find the animals as well as capture their unique moments.
You can view a larger image of this jumping deer in my gallery at The Lens Flare.
