Chamois Portrait

[Andreas Liedmann]

Hi folks ... something different into the mix ...
Image captured in France last spring
It was very foggy and dark heavy clouds were hanging quite low , so I kept everything dark and dull on the color front

Super quality love the muted presentation and the hint of mistiness. Rather large in the frame but I like it like that, as usual DOF focus and detail excellent.
I am surprised how close you got, I thought they ran as soon as humans became close. Maybe good field craft eh?

Thanks for your comment Jon , much appreciated .
Yes I went very subdued with the colors , just pushed the tones to create more depth ... trying to retain the original flatness caused by the mist .
At that location the Chamois are kind of used to hikers .... so if you lucky you can get close , other times they run if you try to approach them . This one was resting just a few meters from the walking trail .
