Mt Evans
I was at Mt Evans 2 weekends ago. Had a great trip. I recommend this trip to anyone who wants to photograph Mountain Goats. The road is
very narrow and steep with lots of switchbacks, so be careful and take your time.

Enjoy

That hair looks like mine when I get up in the morning. Seriously though, nice image! I like his positioning on the rocks.

Great shot. Only advice I can give is that it would have been nice to have had a bit of room on the right of the picture, to give the viewer a sense of the direction the goat is looking. Great shot though!

I'm not at all troubled by the comp here. I can tell where he's looking. I must say that I usually don't like this shaggy look as much as if they weren't shedding their coats, but this guy(?) looks really good this way. Great pose, great environment.

The bad hair just makes him more impressive and wild! Nice shot.

Like the way the coat is blowing in the wind. Nice image.
