A Very Special Meeting - Jack Madsen


Between Two Worlds: My Trophy Buck

There is a mystery to this deer that draws attention to itself. In him we have a glimpse of another world. His world --  which is very different from ours. What is it like to be him? What things does he know? What things frighten him or give him comfort and security. But the glimpse was so fleeting. In a moment he disappeared into the darkness of that pathway in the center of the picture (Did you notice it?). He was gone without a trace, and it would have been futile to try to follow him. But now I have that moment when we saw each other in a special place between our worlds.
