    I think this photo needs a center of interest. My eyes are lost in the photo and the composition has no definition.

    There is something odd about the bottom of the shot like some type bandding. Also, what is the dark roundisu shadow on the bottom left but it might be natural.

    I'm with manacsa on this one. It needs a subject. From your title, I'm looking for a deer hidden in there somewhere, but I don't see anything. I like how the trees and foliage create a type of frame for the center of the image, but then there is nothing in the center other than a dark hole.

    Manacsa,

    The banding on the bottom, it appears to be a black frame with the opacity turned way down to be almost transparent as it goes around the entire image. I wouldn't have even noticed it if you hadn't said something about it.
