Congratulations to Ann Aveyard from Hampshire, England with this image.

The image was taken at Bushy Park in the rutting season. During the rut the stags adorn their antlers with foliage to make themselves appear bigger and more powerful to deter rivals and to attract the females. Image was shot with a canon r5 with canon rf 100-500 f4.5-7.1 L IS
