Monday Portrait

Monday portrait of a brown goat.

During our Crete trip I came across this stunning dark brown goat with shaggy fur. It was just standing there on this rocky, grassy hillside, looking straight at me with such a calm and curious expression—like it was as intrigued by me as I was by it. What really caught my eye was the lighter brown coloring around its eyes and nose, and those small, gently curved horns added so much character. The backdrop was a beautifully blurred mountainous landscape in soft blues and grays. I can’t tell you how delighted I was to capture that moment! It really emphasized the peacefulness of the goat’s solitary presence out there in the rugged outdoors.

  1. Honestly, he looks like he’s observing you, all the details about you, just as you are observing him. My experience has been that the creatures are just as curious about us as we are about them. This is a perfect picture in my book – I love it! Well-done you, and thank you for sharing it with us. pp
