Have been luck to live in Yosemite on and off for a number of years on spring day while walking home from work I came across this majestic buck mule deer. He was sitting on teh edge of a meadow sunning himself next to a couple trees. Walking slowly he let me get within just a few feet for this shot. I've been photographing wildlife for a number of years and know what signs to look for when getting close to animals and never cross that boundary of "their space".
