Mountain Goat on the Chamonix Valley - France (Explore)

There might be a story behind each photograph. I was heading towards Lac Blanc from Col de Montets. The path was full of people; it's hardly a lonely walk in the summer months.

 

This young goat had found something to eat slightly off the path, and I spotted it. As I got closer, the animal couldn't decide whether to run off or whether it was safe enough to continue eating in my presence. This whole process of "thinking and deciding" was frozen in this particular frame.
