I almost didn't take that shot Sir Johann, mostly becuase I like an ocean or blue sky background for birds in flight.
But when I saw the beginning of the sun's effect on his wings, I waited for a few seconds until he was fully lit up, then I clicked. Glad that you liked it!

Thank you also for the kind wishes and I will tell little Noah that an Austrian mountain goat wished him happy birthday! Lol.

Blessings and thank you!

I have a few photos of birds in flight, but none is good enough for posting. I should practice it more often, but I'm just too lazy and wait until they sit down, and even then I miss most shots ;) lol

Yes, tell him greetings from the Austrian mountain goat 😆 lol ... I even cannot remember how janton came on that name. I think we have been talking about hiking and climbing...

Well let me make a suggestion that helped me greatly.
The next year after I started Papillon in 2001, I had to take some photos of our projects for funding grants and that's where my photography life started.

I started on one of the most difficult subjects. Dragonflies.
Now if you can snap a drag clearly in flight, you can easily get anything bigger.
Easy, no, defintely not but with much patience and perseverence doable.
That should solve your problem methinks!

Well at least the name has stuck with you and mountain goats are balanced and hardy critters.
I think that it is a great monniker hahaha.

Cheers and blessings!

You are thinking right, and as I said, I need much more practice ... and time ... and patience 😉

Maybe I should change my profile image from the Kiwifruit to a mountain goat, but therefore I have to take a photo of one ;)


Cheers and !BEER

Ah! Now there's a great idea.

Something like this, as it is free to use on Pixabay!

Looks like a strong enough bugger lol.

Cheers and thank you!

Hahaha 😁😀
Thanks a lot my friend, but I never use images from others. If I need one I make one 😉
If I get the Chance to take a photo of a mountain goat I'll take it, but I don't think I'll change the 🥝 for a goat 😎


Cheers and !BEER

Well, I thought that it would inspire the artist in you Sir Johann.
Imagine how surprised the family would be if you suddenly buy all of the artist materials and you start painting that mountain goat ?
You can even paint your face on his head.
I am sure that the villagers will start calling you "Mountain goat, Johann van Gogh"!

Maybe it's best that you keep the Kiwi Fruit hahaha.
