For the last couple of days I have been working on my camera trying to get it ready for the trip this coming weekend. I just can’t fathom going to the area around Peachtree Falls and not being able to take photos. On top of that I have been needing to update the Bolt Mountain blog.
At any rate, today while messing around with the camera, my neighbors showed up for a small photo shoot.
This doe and her fawn have been a fixture around my house for a little while now. You can’t tell from the photo but the fawn still has some of its spots. I don’t try to get too close to these deer, not wanting them to get used to my presence. This photo was taken from about 75 yards. Sometimes these two bring their friends with them to the field behind my house. One of them is a very nice six point buck. I’m still waiting for an opportunity to get a picture of him.
You can tell my camera still has issues and I hope to get them lined out before the weekend trip. The next photo was taken looking out into the front yard. I think closer shots and panoramic views will work pretty good for the upcoming camping trip.

that’s a strange looking airplane

That’s funny… does kind of look like an airplane… but it’s a hay rake.

I liked the first pic better than the second. I guess I like pics of deer better than airplane shaped hay rakes!

I think I’m going to take another photo of the hay rake… close up view of the airplane
I like the deer photos except that bringing them in closer to view blurred them somewhat…
