This is an impressive-looking photograph, but you tell that it is a composite image. In the very close foreground, the ears of grain are in sharp focus. Further away, but still in the foreground, they become unfocused. Further away still, the deer itself is in sharp focus again, and the background blurred into so-called 'bokeh'. I'd suggest that the deer was not photographed in this situation at all, and has simply been photo-shopped into a composite of multiple images of a grain field (or grain fields).
I was so incensed that I went out this afternoon and took my own:Yeah, but that's art of it. The whole point is to imagine something beautiful.
I guess there is going to be more and more of such things.

Unfortunately, I could not induce the stag to poke his head above the grass and look directly into the camera like in the previous image, as he was quite content to sit there chewing his cud. So I had to settle for a slight downward angle in order to see him at all, but it is the best I could achieve at short notice. It started to rain soon after. I would say, though, that the antlers are more impressive in mine.
There is nothing wrong with other image, its just a new concept, call it "painting one's dreams with reality", if you want. Different concept, different values.
I think those type images along with AI generated imagery should be watermarked to identify them...Some type of watermark on a corner of the image would suffice...This would maintain the integrity of true natural photography...
