The frame looks like it might be a bit too dark. I would try a lighter color, Nice shot and composition BTW.

Nice shot!
Frames help to isolate the image from the influence of the background & I think it works. ;-)

Nope, not a goat. It's a female mountain sheep (ewe). Mountain goats look like this:

Great photo's. I have some very up close shots of Big Horns. My wife and I were hiking at Mt. Baldy and almost darn near got trampled by a small heard. Once they pased us, I found them chilling out on the hillside. Will post when I find them.

Thank you Dharris :D
Is that the Mt. Baldy at Norrdegge, Alberta? If so I have been there many times. Love that area.

I'm guessing it's the Mt. Baldy (officially named Mount San Antonio) in Los Angeles County, California. There are quite a few bighorn sheep that live there.

You are correct! Hell of a hike with gear and pod.
