I like how symetrical this photo with the goat looking straight at you. I also think the use of B&W is very effective.

I'm a sucker for black and white. This is beautiful. Nice depth of field and great detail. 10

good dof. love the lighting. the cropping on the two sides is a bit tight. needs to be rotated ever so slightly to the right.

It's a great shot, she's maybe a little to fat. The Zodica represents the ipitome (sp?) of the animals. This animal is not quite "perfect" enough. But an excellent photo.

That's one overweight goat!

Great eye contact and I really like the blurred geometric background. Feels too tightly cropped at left and right side for my tastes. Nice image though.

Nice shot! Love the expression on the face. Good crop and shallow dof... black and white works really well.

Great.

Intense stare! I like the wonderful pear-shape of the body, you've cropped it just right. The flare of the beard, those horns curvin behind the dark ears, and with the excellent use of DOF, your subject really pops out of the picture. 9

Very simetrycal. Eyes (+horns and ears) in sharp focus, thats important.

Great shot, I like the black and white. Maybe crop a little more off the top.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Up close and personal! Perfect angle on this, and spot-on DOF. I also like the the location at which the background changes from dark to light- the dark ears and head are nicely accented being in front of the whitest part of the background. Good show!

Great shot ... by the size of this goat, looks like you almost needed a "wide-angle" lens!!!
