[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This goat loves to eat the rice leftover from making rocski, a super strong drink made in back yards of Nepal. He not only gobbled every single bit, he butted any goat that came near. His tongue flicked in and out rapidly, "like what is this?" I suspect at this farm he gets plenty of leftover rocski rice (what it is made from).

Gloria,

Very nice shot. I love the look in the eyes and the rope adds an interesting touch. I think it may be just a bit dark. I tried a WS just for fun, hope you like it. :-) Very good note, sounds like he's a "party animal" ;)

Good shot and an amusing note Gloria. You certainly have done more with goats than anyone else on TE. I am surprised how narrow your DOF is here, but catching the eye in focus is what is most important. On my screen, only the bridge of the nose looks too dark, the rest is about right I think. Overall though, I think I prefer your shots of people Gloria, but this is good as well.

A goat-portrait! - but I still prefer people :-).

Looks like you captured a "party animal" here, Gloria. The eyes are almost looking a bit crazed, and the sharpness and detail on the animal's body is very good. Good DOF. It doesn't look too dark on my screen, but I'm currently traveling in the U.S. using my laptop, and I'm never able to judge the brightness very well on that one. In any case, you're showing another great addition to your never ending travelogue from India. Well done.

The goat does look abit tipsy, probably thought there were two photographers taking his picture. Great potrait of a goat. He looks a bit comfused

Very funny Gloria..may be a bit dark on my screen but funny, so..

Love the note explaining the situation. Great capture of this goat. Although a bit on the dark side, it is still a good shot. Love the sparkle in his left eye.

Hmm an interesting goat story, Gloria. And a very nice picture along with it. Hic !! ;)
