Description Yesterday I spent a day on Lundy, an island off the coast of North Devon. It was my first visit to the island and certainly won't be my last Unfortunately the weather turned against us and after a couple of hours of being overcast, the rain fell and never stopped.Still, I managed to take lots of pictures but the majority are limited to the wild goats and horses on the island. I am currently sifting through them to weed out the poorer ones but I felt this one needed processing immediately

Hope you like it too.

I love goats and this is really a wonderful picture of them. It's like a cute family photo The landscape looks very pictoresque and looks great with them. The focus looked quite odd to me at first, I think I would have liked them both in focus, but it's not too bad as it is.

Very nice capture of the two of them at ease in their natural environment
The vivid colours of the foliage around them makes for a very nice contrast with their pale fur

SO cute Love the colors, although a little more sunshine would have enhanced the photo. The great composition makes up for it though. Good luck with the NaturPics-club contest! You'll get one of my votes for sure

Oh wow that is amazingly gorgeous, the scenery is just wow. The colors too are great.

The only thing is that mamma's heads a bit out of focus, not much though, its barely noticeable.

I have to learn to take my time a little more and think about the shots. Tripod (and a stop or two down) would have been better on this one I think but I'm learning all the time
