I tried to communicate with aliens, but only deer answered

Hallo Friends,

Because my other camera setup was busy recording the Milky Way, I had time to try something that I had wanted to do for a long time.
Surprise, miraculously, I had my second camera with me. Light painting is a new hobby of mine. It's nice that my drone has many lights on board, which helped me a lot. In reality it was much darker than it appears in the picture and was afraid that the drone would get stuck in the tree. Since the other camera was busy I was able to test the different programs of the Fimi X8 drone, I took this picture with the Orbit program. Some said the tree had a halo, others said a message from the aliens or, conversely, a message to the aliens.

To make it short:

After it was very dark and I had no light on either, you could hear something moving nearby. With my red light lamp I saw a couple of deer in the forrest behind me. Then I quickly dismantled everything and left the field.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
