It was almost like a film première. The photographers were out in their droves, long lenses straining for the next photo opportunity. Only it wasn't that it was Bradgate Park on a bright, fresh October morning. There must have been at least 20 photographers in the park all straining to get that one illusive photograph - only they weren't. It would seem that not only do deer herd but so do photographers. I asked one of the number whether they were from a camera club but apparently not. However, this didn't stop them congregating together. At one stage I thought it would spoil the morning but it didn't. I later spoke to one of the park wardens and he said that last Sunday a number of photographers entered the out of bounds area - a really silly thing to do and not obaying the code of practice for nature photographers.
I could continue picking faults with the morning but with my local knowledge and some understanding of deer behaviour I was able to find good sites and get some good shots. I just wonder what most of the other photographs were like? A ho.
