Photographed this mountain goat on Mount Evans, Colorado. Was glad he still had his winter coat. Thanks for looking.

Hi Dan Excellent detail in the white fur and great pose. Keep wanting to move the head left or right by taking some form one side .... started thinking right since he is looking left but sure like all that hair detail so I'm thinking left? Will see what everybody comes up with !!! Might fine and love it !!

Sweet shot Dan. Crisp and clear. I like the fur BG he provided for himself.

[Steve Kaluski]

A real 'cracker' of an image, detail is superb. Would love to see a close up with all that fur.:)

Love the detail in this, I can see what Al is getting at, but can't think that cropping any of that wonderful coat would add to the image. Really like the background sky, colours goes well with the white.

Dan - Beautiful image. I also love the detail in the fur. Excellent exposure and catchlight. I agree with Hilary and think I would leave as is although I understand what Al means.

TFS,
Rachel

Thanks so much for the comments. Did not want to crop anymore because it would take from the coat and the lines in the coat made a interesting design.

Dan - You MG images always blow me away! No explanation necessary.

Great image Dan. I love the way the hair flows down from the neck and cheek. I wouldn't crop any of it.

I'm going to have to add Mount Evans, Colorado, to my list of places to go.
