Capturing the beauty of wildlife is a passion of mine, and I was lucky enough to witness a stunning Whitetail Doe at the Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma. With my trusty Canon EOS R5 in hand and the powerful RF 800 mm F11 IS STM lens attached, I was ready to take the shot.

On July 21st, 2022, at 09:25 A.M., the doe approached me, and I was able to capture the moment in all its glory. I set the camera to Aperture Priority mode and used a shutter speed of 1/2500 and an ISO of 4000 to capture the crisp details and natural colors of the deer. The focal length of 800 mm allowed me to zoom in and capture the doe’s intricate features, creating a portrait that truly showcases the beauty of this majestic animal.

This experience is just one of the many reasons why I love wildlife photography, and I am always excited for the next opportunity to capture the beauty of nature through my lens.
