The photo was taken early in the morning. In the autumnal forest still hung the early morning fog. Actually, I had little hope of finding the deer that morning when the mighty old stag suddenly appeared in the clearing. I had seen him coming and hoped that he would show himself freely in the clearing. Instead, however, he stopped behind one of the trees. Only his head and parts of the mighty antlers were visible to me. I had not seen him like this before. In retrospect, I was glad that it had turned out that way - after all, I had a shot "in the can" that was much more exciting and mysterious than the usual "full-format" image of the animal.
The image captivates, in addition to the actual motif by the special mood in the forest, which is transported by the muted, natural colors excellent. Mysterious and mystical - a picture for every "ranger" and nature lover.
