Three Cold Deer

During a walk in the Austrian Alps, Your Shot photographer Bastian Hertel came across a group of deer. He approached slowly and none of the animals seemed to mind, so he got on his knees and waited until they got in a position he liked. This photo was submitted to Your Shot, our photo community on Instagram.
