Red Stag on the hill in the New Zealand high country.

Majestic New Zealand Red Stag emerging from shadows to silhouette against glowing mountains in bustling late afternoon high country, posing perfectly with a hind before vanishing amid rolling hills, dappled light, and subtle movement – capturing nature's transient drama and wild allure in Aotearoa's timeless frame, achieved through patient positioning in fading sun, quiet and precise timing for the dramatic backlit effect.
