Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Mountain Goat Kids” by Gene Putney. Location: Mount Evans in Colorado.
“These mountain goat kids chose a nice spot to stop and pose briefly as they observed their surroundings,” says Putney. “It was near last light and the sun illuminated them like a spotlight. With the dark canyon wall for a backdrop, it was the perfect combination to make them stand out nicely.”
