The perfect shot – Lucky man captures two majestic stags rutting under a rainbow

This is the remarkable moment a lucky man managed to capture two majestic stags rutting under a perfect rainbow.

Stephen Davies took a trip up the mountains with his family when he stumbled across the two stags engaging in a fierce mating battle.

The nature lover had decided to drive up to Glen Etive on Friday.

And the 47-year-old did not leave disappointed, after capturing the “perfect” spectacle.

Mr Davies from Tullibody, Clackmannanshire, said: “I was with my partner, stepdaughter and her partner who had come to visit us.

“We took a drive up and I saw one stag on the mount and realised that there was a rainbow in the background.

“I then saw another stag coming towards the other one, it must have thought it was eating food or something.

“It was then I thought this was just the perfect opportunity to take a picture. I could not resist.”

The phone shop manager was thrilled with the result, and said he was glad to witness the special moment.

“It was a wow moment. One of those moments you don’t expect to see,” he said.

“The family was quite excited to see that.”
