Great shot of the 'downhill event'!. Tell us more about the film. Never heard of it.

Oh wow! Where is this, I wanna go there..! Lovely shot, beautiful colour. So, the OM1 and the good old 50mm can still cut it!

Lovely: clear and beautiful. For me it is a pity that you lost the vanguard off the picture though.

Very beautiful and quite sharp! Too bad the front goat is partially cut off, but a great picture anyway!

Thanks a lot for all comments! Trageser:I found and used this film for the first time :)Perutz made in Germany. MacDonald:This place is Lagorai mountain chain in the North Italy near Trento where I live. Chris and Caldwell: in the original picture the animal was without head :))).... so it needed some correction.

Lovely crisp colours, and a good composition. I like the way that the light coloured goat on the right is against a dark background, while the dark goats in the middle are against the snow. As the others have said, it's a slight shame about the lead goat being cut off, but I guess goats are never that co-operative...

As a contrast to the other comments, the front goat running out of the picture and the upper right part of the picture empty gives a greater sense of motion to this photo that if the animals had been framed further to the right, I think.

Amazing that you got so close using a 50mm lens. You would have to be standing right next to them. Nice that the snow didn't wash out your picture. Your really have a handle on the exposure. Like the previous comment this looks like it should be a post card.
