Hey Alex, is it my imagination or you actually came up to second place from the third? It is very well deserved, by the way, just being a bit puzzled, that's all. I love this photo.

What I want to know is how did you get the stags to battle right under the studio lights? Hehe. Lighting is soooo perfect. I have come back to this photo numerous times, can't get enough of it.

Conrats on your ribbon. This is a very nice shot. For some reason, I don't recall seeing this when I was voting. There was another photo with 2 deer fighting that I did notice, but out of the two this is much more natural. Well done!

NICE SHOT!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This is an outstanding shot. I think what makes this stand out is the angle of the shot and the cute blur around the subjects.

Nice light; lots of tension in their poses, as there should be. Great find for this challenge.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

A bit too desaturated for my taste, never the less an amazing action shot with great framing and detail. One of my top two.

Neat! Love this, the lighting and colors are fab. 8

Awesome, ribbon

Great capture! Seeing this photo, I can just hear the thunderous claps when their antlers collide. The only thing I don't like about this photo is the relatively heavy vignetting. To me, that hides too much of this beautiful scene.

Superb !
