A beautiful picture of the Goat in silhouette against the setting sun in an orange sky with a Jackdaw or crow in silhouette on top of the tall bare branched tree on the right just left of the sun & other smaller birds circling above the trees the sun glowing through the clouds as it colours them in shades of gold to orange framed by darker clouds above & the mountains below. Artistic composition framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

This is such a peaceful image. I think the goat is the perfect subject in this beautiful landscape for this contest. The birds in the sky are nice too and what nice timing to also get the bird perched at the top of the closest tree. The image has so many interesting things happening at a beautiful time of day.

This is a beautiful view. It was luck that the goat was watching too, but it was your skill which made the photo extraordinary. I love how the hazy sun illuminates the sky and the hills in the background bot the foreground and the birds are dork silhouettes. The photo has a beautiful depth and dramatic. The shot is emotionally charging the viewer with its depth and colors. It is also well balanced and framed.

So beautiful is your silhouetted landscape in the foreground. So nice how the trees and shrubs frame this shot. A gorgeous sunset sending a warm glow of colors across that most interesting sky. Captivating how the sunset draws you into the horizon with an interest landscape. A good entry into the contest and congratulations on your 2nd place win! Outstanding photography and post-processing skills. Thanks for sharing!

Love what you've done with this beautiful landscape showing the goat and trees silhouetted against the setting sun lighting up the sky in the background - gorgeous colours. Very good entry for the contest. I like the angle you used for this. Very good lighting and focus. Excellent composition. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

Comment from Dick Lee Shia


Excellent choice of subject.
Aptly captured for the contest theme...
Golden hour glow.
Crouching low could have made the goat silhouette more prominent & engaging with the sky as backdrop as opposed to the darker mountain slope.
Subtle illumination.
Great framing.
Pin sharp focusing.

Visually balance with those two trunks with lush foliage on both sides.

Best of luck in the contest!

Love this shot! So much to look at and take in I almost didn't even notice the goat at first. I immediately went to the sun and the tall stalk with the bird first and then noticed the goat. Interesting and pleasing to look at. The silhouette with the beautiful slightly muted background is awesome!

A great contest entry. There is so much for the viewer to spend time exploring. The goat, the birds in flight, the bird at the top of the tree and, of course, the lovely sunset. Great composition. Good luck in the contest.
