Blue sheep Nepal

A close-up of the Himalayan blue sheep, which I photographed near Shey Gompa in Dolpo, Nepal. Earlier this week I posted two individual on a ridge.

This male came walking up from behind a small hill, while I lay down on the the other side.
He was be bit to close for my taste, as it was difficult to get enough space around him in the frame. Because they are quit shy, I didi not dare to chance lenses.

This one is shot with a 500mm. Unfortunately this lens became full with fungi on the inside lenses (tropical rainforest are not the best environments for camera equipment).

The fungi in the 500mm made all images look soft and in some circumstances there are "fancy" reflections to be seen in the images.

So the image is not pin sharp, but it is too expensive to travel back to Nepal now..... wish I could.

Thanks for looking.
