| I felt the same way when I was at the rim of the canyon: don't fall. It is clear you were at the right place at the right time and were lucky enough to have the goat just stand there while you were able to get a few shots off. This was a great shot and fits the title perfectly. |

Thanks for all the comments! I must say that I am very happy to get this win after just a few participations in the dpchallenge (that I think is a terrific concept BTW)! Thanks to your votes I realized that this picture may actually have some potential........here's what the photo editor of one of the major US wildlife magazines said: "It's a perfectly good photo, very dramatic." I was obviously very excited by this feedback! We'll see what happens, maybe this will be my first photo sale ever?!?! Good luck with "texture" challenge everyone! Jakob aka Chakkobbo

| The best non-horror-ish picture this week, I think. It's not comical like most came out, but downright satisfying in the guts because when you look at it, you're inevitably forced to put yourself in the position of the animal. |

| This is a great photograph! It appears that you caught it during the :Sweet Light" period of either early morning or evening. This has given the background rich color as well as just enough light to properly expose the subject. Very inspiring, but may not do real well because most will think it misses a direct hit on fear. You deserve a 9 from Autool. |

| I really like this shot and the title does explain what you were "going for", (sound of shoe dropping) but I don't buy it. It isn't a question of the goat's fearlessness, this is it's environment (do you fear your house?); as for you being in it's place (substitution thing), if you were the goat, you'd be "at home", too. Absolutely wonderful shot, thank you for sharing, too bad the challenge wasn't drop dead great nature shots, you'd have won hands down. 5 Swash |
