More about Micheldever Wood and the Bluebells

[Columbarius]

I visited there on Wednesday last week, lots of cars & lots of people, but also a fine bluebell and butterfly display.

The following day I saw this in the Telegraph taken apparently on the morning of my visit:

I can't make my mind up whether it's a brilliant shot, staged in some way, or photoshopped. What do you think?

It's a remarkable image. Looking at her website there are some lovely press images, but none look faked so my guess would be this is real too. Right moment, right time, right settings.

I agree she has some great stuff on her website. I was wondering if the deer was driven past the photographer in some way, or the results of days staking out a spot on a known deer path through the wood. As you say, quite remarkable.
