Hi everyone

Talking about luck?
Well,i`m concentrated and shooting Stag #1 , a few seconds later i see addlers appearing from the middle of nowhere (very high grass).
If that wasn`t enough , a few seconds later and to my surprise...a rooster from a nearby farm turns up and lines with the 2 stags.
Were they all looking for a photoshoot?

Talking about luck eh ? i just couldn`t believe it.:lol::lol:

All taken with the 70-300 IS and tamron 1.4 TC

That's amazing Dimitri - you must be living right. The key here though is that unlike me, you were ready and captured the moment. I'm always about 30 seconds too late! Great job.
