Another image taken from a set I shot while doing a sunrise photo shoot at about 12,000 ft amsl along the eastern slope of Mt. Evans, Colorado. After doing a landscape shoot, I spotted a herd of mountain goats working their way up the eastern slope of Mt Evans.
After taking some shots of some \"kid\" goats, I worked my way up an area where the heard was moving to. Within 15 minutes, the heard or approximately 40 was lounging, eating, and doing what mountain goats do. I began shooting images of the herd and, as always when amongst these guys, very careful not to startle them. This image was taken as I was sitting on top of a small boulder imbedded into the mountainside...looking to the north, the mtn goat came up to me and gave a curious look and what appeared to be a smile. For this image, I believe I was using a Nikon D700, Nikkor 24-70. As always, comments are welcomed and thanks for looking!
