    Default Mountain Goat Young of the Year

    From the beginning of the Highline Trail, near Logan Pass, Glacier National Park. I can't decide whether I like the blurred foreground that hides the feet or not. All comments welcome.

    I like the FG as is. WE can wish for all sorts of combinations of image elements, but I still like it this way. THe viewing angle is perfect as is the diagonal approach toward you. Not to mentione the CUTE factor! :) Thanks for sharing. :)

    Cindy,

    The goat looks great but I am undecided about the OOF FG. If it had continued along the whole lower edge and not been interrupted by the log, I would like the affect better.

    Cindy,
    The mountain goat looks nice. I feel it would have been better if the foreground were in focus. Using a narrow aperture would have helped and you had sufficient shutter speed to play around. Were you in a vehicle or on foot?

    Cheers,
    Sabyasachi

    Lovely comp and sharpness. The oof foreground isn't too bothersome, and has room for the "virtual" feet, but I do feel it is cramped and needs more space.

    Thanks to all for the comments.

    Sabyasachi, I was hiking and the goats were down a slope below me, walking my way. I kneeled down to get the lower angle, thus the foreground material. I didn't think, at the time, to play with different apertures.
