I’m a graphic designer and I work with photoshop everyday. I’m sorry but the deer looks pasted in to me. Maybe i’m wrong but thats just my view of it. I’m not saying they are not a cute photos.

I believe it! My Dad found a juvenile deer (not adult, but not a fawn either) near his car. He stood only a few feet away from it, and talked to it for about five minutes before it ran away. We live in a populated area too, so that little guy should have been wary! I believe that if these people fed the deer, it would definitely come up to them!

Yay to the story and photos!

My Grandma lives in a rural area away from everyone really (nearest neighbor is 2 miles away). She leaves food out for the deer there and they know her. They will let her touch them, but only her. Any other humans and they take off.

Check out the shadows and the light and texture differences between the deer and the other subjects. Also the “defensive” posture of the deer is off. Obvious mixing of images from different shots but still a nice story if you like lies.

WOW!!! Great Photos!

Carrie, you won’t believe this.

I went outside… and I got something!

I’m going to the doctor for antidepressants and ADD medicine first thing Monday morning. I’m drinking heavily to tide me over till the doctor’s appointment.

God if I had only heeded your warning.

Ah, well. Just ’cause I was curious (having recently gotten the fake story of the dog getting the medal of honor) I searched for ‘deer’ on snopes. There are a lot of deer stories out there, lemme tell you. In particular, there’s a true ‘adult’ story about a deer tongue that made me just shake my head… But of course, there’s nothing about the doggies, because human-friendly deer are a dime a dozen. Especially if there are apples.

The response to the story I wrote about “Grandfather Eyes of the Hawk” has been so encouraging! There is an earlier story with the same dignified Native American grandfather available on CO: If you scroll up to Sizzearch and enter “photoshopped” in the box…click on the first entry that appears…You will go to the beautiful post of the hawk and the cat…and grandfather’s story to explain it.

I have a photo of my three year old daughter feeding deer apples from her hand. We were on a camping trip at Loft Mountain in the Blue Ridge Mountains. The deer hang around the campsites because they know they’ll get special treats.
