 I came across these two out in the wild this weekend, but not as you see here. These are tame llama which escaped their enclosure and were headed down the street just as I was passing by, so I stopped and snapped a few shots. The background is of Butte Creek Valley close to my home. I used the extract filter to remove the llamas from their more familiar surroundings and dropped them here. Here are the original pics:

What a superb combination, just fantastic. The scenery, and that dramatic sky are the perfect environment for the llamas.

Great combo! The llamas look right at home in their new environment.

This is just me, but I'd like to see a little more light in the shot.

Great work, and I love those clouds.
