Doe's Taste Of Summer ...

who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief …

For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.”

My favorite white-tailed deer doe enjoys a taste of summer as she savors an apple on a beautiful July evening in the park.

I’ve been blessed to photograph this doe and her fawns since 2012, and it’s a true joy to me personally and as a photographer.

The Fruits Of Spring ...

"In all things of nature, there is something of the marvelous."
                                             ~ Aristotle
                                                    ~ 385-322 B.C.

My favorite white-tailed deer doe enjoys an apple
in the early spring, painting a sweet sight as 
sunset draws near in the park.

I've been blessed to photograph this doe and her fawns
since 2012, and it's a true joy to me personally and
as a photographer.  

 

A Bite of Joy ...

"Scatter joy ..."
                 ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
                                       ~ 1803-1882

Beautiful white-tailed deer doe enjoys a shiny red apple
on a waning summer evening in the park.

I've been blessed to photograph this doe and her fawns 
for more than three years, and it's a true joy to me
personally and as a photographer. 

Sugar Dusted ...

Snow seems like sugar dusted on the nose of this sweet white-tailed deer doe as she eats an apple on a winter's day in the park.

I've been blessed to photograph this doe and her fawns for the past three years and it's a true joy to me personally and as a photographer.

Anticipation ...

"We can judge the heart of a man
by his treatment of animals."
                             ~ Immanuel Kant
                                              1724-1804

Beautiful white-tailed deer doe anticipates
eating the rest of her apple in the park
just after this season's first significant snowfall
during a Pennsylvania autumn. 

I've been blessed to photograph this doe
and her fawns for more than two and a half years, 
and it's a real joy to me personally and as
a photographer. 

Carpe Diem!

Carpe Diem!

Beautiful white-tailed deer doe seems to seize the day
as she enthusiastically crunches on an apple
in the park on an April evening.
