Beautiful!
Pros:
This is a great shot, and listing the pros is not difficult... The fence and high-contrast black and white give an almost unban/gritty feel that's unusual for a farm animal, but works well for goats. The expression is perfect; it really captures the essence of the little beasty. The late day light and long shadows add a lot of interest.
Cons:
There are some technical problems, including some blowouts on the chest and neck, and the fairly harsh shadow on the top of the nose. A slightly lower point of view would have hidden his little butt, too, which is currently growing out of his head! I can also see what I think is the photographer's shadow on the fence. All in all, though, I think these 'issues' are minor and are greatly overshadowed by the great character of the image.
Thanks!

OMG ... this shot has such character ... that goat is OUT THERE!!! .. or rather he probably wishes he was ... reckon he might fly out of there powered by his ears alone, and of course a bit of mind power as well .. altho from my experience if goats are anything like sheep, then he'll be pushing you know wot uphill if he relies on the power of his mind ..:) .. actually those eye's are manic!! ... it looks like he could be trying to hypnotize you .. i obviously got it wrong when i thought he might be flying out using his ears ... he will be using his mind after all, but not in the way i was thinking ..
'alicia, are you feeling sleepy??' ..
'you are feeling sleepy' ..
'you are asleep!!' ...
'when you hear me bleat you will open the gate' ... 'you will wake up when you see my bum beating a hasty retreat' .. 'you will not raise the alarm' .. 'you will close the gate after i have gone' .. 'you will think wot you've done is totally reasonable' ... :) .. |
