I Shot a Deer!

[svantland]

I made this shot while I was traveling through the back country. I did a bit of cloning to remove some grass in front of the deer because I found it distracting. I have 2 questions. First, I would like some C&C on the image as a whole. Secondly, can you tell where I hid the grass? It seems to jump out at me, but I don't know if that is because I need to improve my technique, or because I know where the grass was to begin with. If you like, I can post the image before grass removal for comparison. I didn't want to post it right away so that there is no cheating
