Goats and Glaciers

Last light catches the winter coats of some rocky mountain goats (Oreamnos americanus) as they descend down from snowbird pass. The mighty Robson glacier can be seen below in the distance. The mountain goats are not a member of the genus Capra that includes all other goats, rather they are a member of the antelope family, and should be more correctly referred to as a goat-antelope. Mt Robson Provincial Park, British Columbia, Canada.

I took this shot with a Canon EOS 6D Mark II, using a Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM at ISO 1250 and a focal length of 200.0 mm with an aperture of f/5 and a exposure time of 1/3200.
