Chamois

Nikon D300, Nikon AF-S 300mm, 1/1250, f5.6, ISO 400
A chamois in Louson Valley, Italy.
The chamois are quite shy and not easy to photograph up close. This specimen has suddenly emerged in front of me while I was going up the Valley of Louson, at about 2900 meters.

6 commentsLooks like you had tough lighting to deal with here - but overall I think you did a good job. I like the positioning of the subject in the frame and the downhill slope the subject is on adds a nice diagonal element to the image. I'm in agreement with Guy that those bright highlights in the background detract a little, but not too much you could do about that. Were you using a polarizing filter when you shot this image? If not, you MIGHT have been able to reduce some of those background reflections a little if you used one...
Cheers...thanks for sharing this...
