Hey, considering this image meets the challenge and is an okay photograph, I think the voting is pretty harsh. Yeah, I know it's not as creative as a staged SL image. But, degree of difficulty is pretty high to find 13 alpacas in a bunch.

Well, I think you should've used dynamite to blow up the blue building! Then it wouldn't have been a distraction. Oh, wait, that'd probably scare the alpacas, wouldn't it... Well, you could sit patiently and wait for them to reconvene. Then they'd all be staring at you suspiciously...

Nice photo! The fence isn't too distracting but the blue building pulls my attention away. I'm wondering how this would look in B&W.

I love the gang on the right. They are calculating range... do alpacas spit like camels? If so, you'd best be moving on....

i know the odds must be pretty slim running into a pack of 13 alpacas...i would have made that un-attentive one into a ball of yarn on the spot.
