I've usually carry my camera with me when I go hunting. I've taken a few pics from my stand this year and every time I take one the deer seem to be oblivious to it. They never even look when the flash goes off. But, I haven't taken any pics of good sized older bucks either. I did get a pic of a decent looking nine point with my stealth cam, but I haven't seen him in any more pics since the first one.
