Very very cute. He is adorable. Looks like he just had his neck brushed. #1472217Nikki McDonald June 30, 2012
I noticed the neck right off, too. I think s/he has just been shorn - looks as if s/he's crocheted :) Pretty color and very nice light, Chris. #10208143Michele Peterson June 30, 2012
I have to smile at every one of your alpaca photos, and this one I even laughed.... He/she looks so proud that you are photographing it!! Wonderful portrait of such a fun creature. #10208196Bob Cournoyer June 30, 2012
So, they ^ asked all the questions I was going to ask about he/she. Fine/sharp portrait... :-)Happy Theme Day #10208249

I'm glad you explained about the shearing, Chris. I love the pattern of the hair and thought that's what it was. Such appealing animals. One wants to give them a hug and a scratch. #10208899Donna La Mattino Pagakis July 01, 2012
LOL! I love the profile shot, what a beautiful image Chris! #10208915Chris Budny July 02, 2012
Thanks, ladies! #10210210Ann Coates July 04, 2012
Gorgeous profile shot here. I love Alpacas. Always seem quite friendly to me. #10214231Chris Budny July 05, 2012
Thank you, Ann; they are friendly, although rather timid and likely to flee from strangers. #10214922Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
