Up Close and Personal

How I love my zoom lens! 

This Texas Whitetail Deer female was just determined to pose for me.  Although I am not so close to her as it would seem, just zooming big time.  Nevertheless, I love to get photos like these and then study them closely to see the real details of the fur, eyes, whiskers, etc.  My real inclination is to pet these animals, but they would never stand for that.  Photos come in a close second.  Shooting them is not even on my list.
