Face off

Photo by Peter Laurenson

A stag taking stock of me, after plunging 500 or so vertical metres down a steep scree slope, beside Colenso Spur in the eastern Ruahine Ranges, to stay clear of me. Fair enough - there's nothing more deadly than a human, especially during the roar. Although he had nothing to fear from me – my only shooting is done with a camera / Lumix TZ220, F6.4, 1/80, ISO 125, 360 mm
