Hi friends,
This shot was taken at Jhalana a small jungle adjacent to Jaipur,I was there to search of Panther there are around 4-5 panthers. I traveled about 6 Km. on my foot but the results are not what I want but I found many other animals and here is a cheetal (Spotted deer) very shy and innocent animal.

The chital (or cheetal) deer (Axis axis), also known as the spotted deer or axis deer is a deer which commonly inhabits wooded regions of Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, and most of India. It is the most common deer species in Indian forests. Its coat is reddish fawn, marked with white spots, and its underparts are white. Its antlers, which it sheds annually, are usually three-pronged and curve in a lyre shape and may extend to 75 cm. It has a protracted breeding season due in part to the tropical climate, and births can occur throughout the year. For this reason, males do not have their antler cycles in synchrony and there are some fertile females at all times of the year. Males sporting hard antlers are dominant over those in velvet or those without antlers, irrespective of their size and other factors. A chital stands about 90 cm tall at the shoulder and masses about 85 kg. Lifespan is around 20-30 years.

Hi Viabhav,

Now you are making me jalous, I so hoped to see deer or other wildlife. You did!
You don't say that you were on foot looking for panthers?? Isn't that dangerous?
.
Well lovely moment captured here.

Nicely captured Vaibhav. Well composed with good colour and light. It possibly could have done with a touch of sharpness but a lovely image regardless. TFS,

a little bit sharper can be nice Vaibhav :D

Hello Vaibhav,
This is a good portrait of this fine fellow!
I understand this is in the wild, and that is always a lot more difficult than zoos so this is well done...
A pleasant composition with good details!
Greetings,
