Eco-chic:

The heart-warming stare
of a fallow deer

by Pepin

When you see them running in the wild, you can feel your heart’s pace slowly waning and your thoughts lingering on the beauty that these creatures bring.

Standing with grace, the fallow deer is a perfect reminder for all of us that nature is beautiful in every aspect, even beyond on what we think that charm and elegance can only be achieved with jewelries and fancy clothes.

Because of its pale coat and meek stare, this heart-warming mammal gleam with modesty and minimalism – the two important qualities that Mother Nature demands from us. “Modesty” because we have so much to boasts, such as the colorful flowers, the beautiful reefs, and the picturesque landscapes. There is no reason for us to crave with greed over money and material possessions. “Minimalism” because in the eyes of the natural world everything is simple; there is no need for us to complicate our daily tasks.

For a majority, these creatures are not the best looking mammal in the land, but they can definitely capture your sentiments like never before.
