A few more pictures of the friendly deer residents of Miyajima island- meandering around in a quest for food and posing for the odd photo. See my original post here.

Thanks 🙂 They are pretty friendly and will just laze about and pose 🙂

How tame?! 🙂
winegums May 23, 2012
Pretty tame! They just laze about and are non-fussed by humans. They will even let you give them a stroke behind the ear. They are so friendly in fact that a little bit of food will illicit a mob!

Idea for a camera, but not for a picnic, then! 🙂
winegums May 24, 2012
haha pretty much. People buy bags of bread to feed them and then you see them running away with a herd of deer chasing after them.

I love the top one… that’s going in my yes pile.

There are quite a few in there now! I may have to print you up a book (I am going to make one when I’m back) 🙂

awww, sweet! They’re so elegant.
winegums May 23, 2012
They are very sweet! Though a bit pesky when they find out you have food! They have been known to steal the odd guide map and chew on them, mistaking them for something tasty.

fine examples of why black and white pictures can be great! Wonderful pictures 🙂

Thank you 🙂 I am always a huge fan or high contrast black and white photos. People sometimes say that black and white is a fad, or why would you when you can use colour but I think it is an art form in and of itself.

absolutely! I started making b&w when I wasn’t happy with the colors or the picture temperature, but I liked working towards good black and whites more and more. Right now, I am trying to have a few b&w pictures in every set I do
