Took this on Mt. Evans. This little guy must have been worn out from the climb to above the tree line.

Nice textural contrast in the rocks and coat of the animal.

Nice! Fills the frame, and the exposure isn't too harsh; like the contrast between his soft fur and the surrounding rocks. Interesting colors in the rocks too.

As others have mentioned, I like the contrast between the soft-looking fur and the coarse rocks. He does look quite tuckered out but very relaxed in spite of humans nearby. Cute little guy. :smile:
