This image shows a red deer stag standing at the edge of Loch Leven in the Scottish Highlands during an autumn sunset. I had been watching the deer exploring the area for quite some time, hoping one would walk out onto this peninsula and create a reflection in the calm water. I was over the moon when one did, just as the sunset lit up the sky. Taken during the rutting season, the sound of the deer bellowing echoed across the loch, adding to the atmosphere of this unforgettable evening on a camping trip.
