A fabulous foray into the foals of the forest - deer. Sutherland stalks his prey with a camera, not a gun, capturing another side of the much-adored creature in its natural and suburban habitat. Shot with an amateur's approach to naturalism this showcase of photographs explores deer for the powerful yet delicate creatures they are.
