Incoming cute alert! This morning, I felt like sharing some adorable White-tailed Deer fawn photos I took at Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge two days ago.<\/p>\n

\"White-tailedWhite-tailed Deer fawn in a forest \u2013 Canon R7, handheld, f8, 1\/250, ISO 800, +0.3 EV, Canon 100-500mm at 167mm, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

My good friend and wildlife photographer Steve Creek<\/span><\/a> saw this fawn first because it was on his side of the truck. In order for me to take images of the fawn, I had to exit the truck and walk around behind it.<\/p>\n

Walking quietly on the gravel was a challenge, but I was able to make my way around the truck to a spot where I had nearly clear views of this White-tailed Deer fawn.<\/p>\n

I started off zoomed back so I could take photos of the full body of the young spotted deer.<\/p>\n

Then, I zoomed in to take close-up portraits of this young White-tailed Deer fawn. She or he was gorgeous in my viewfinder.<\/p>\n

Ladies, the eyelashes on this young deer are crazy long!<\/p>\n

You might notice that my shutter speed was slow for all of these images. I wanted to keep my ISO low to reduce any unwanted noise in my photos. I was hand-holding the camera and lens, which meant I had to be as steady as possible to get sharp images. That strategy works out well for me most of the time.<\/p>\n

Apparently, I can be steady as a rock when needed.<\/p>\n

The doe that was with the fawn paid no attention to Steve or me as we took images of her youngster. She simply kept on eating and foraging.<\/p>\n

The White-tailed Deer fawn, on the other hand, kept checking us out. I wondered if the fawn was curious about the two-legged animals aiming one glass eye at her or him.<\/p>\n

Me?<\/p>\n

I was simply over the moon to have this beautiful, young fawn in my viewfinder. Photographing the fawn was such a treat.<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
