Greetings:
Last time I made a submission was in 2001. How time flies! I took this quick shot yesterday in my back yard. Apparently, the doe was in my garden behind some shrubs. As I was walking back into the house I turned around and there she was strolling by. I shot this photo from about 20-25'.
How could I have gotten the shrub branch in focus too? I am still learning. Larger Fstop? Please critique.
Thank you in advance, Ken

Love the deer picture. I would be ever so proud if I had taken a picture like that!!!!
Thank you. We have been lucky to have an abundance of wildlife come through this year. I hope they continue to come now that I have a worthy camera!

Great capture on the deer. I guess that is where auto comes in handy, when you don't have time to do anything but press the shutter.
Thank you, I appreciate it. Now I hope I can learn how to do something beyond!

Thank you all very much for the suggestions. The picture of Achilles that I posted was the best of about 10 shots. All of them had severe green eye reflections... that was with the red-eye reduction function turned on. I will try the tissue trick Sugarpenny and let you know. If it doesn't work I will pick up a real one at the photo shop when I get my external flash. Jim - funny! Achilles is actually the biggest baby you have ever seen. Thank you again. This is a great website.

I just purchased a Canon T3i and I am an excited novice. A few days after I got it I noticed a deer pass by my front window. I grabbed the camera ran into a bedroom on the other side of the house. When I peeked through the blinds I was as surprised as this deer was! This shot was a complete point and shoot auto photo. 55-250 mm at 55, ISO 500, f/4 for 1/80
The second photo is my 5 year old 105 lb. Doberman, Achilles, who still suckles his blanket. What is the best way to avoid the green eye reflections? I just ordered an external flash so I can experiment with bouncing the light. Again on full auto: 55-250 mm at 100, ISO 400, f/5 for 1/60
Thanks in advance for the input!
