Goat Island Rescue

We had a decent amount of rain over the last two days,so my mind started thinking about all the heavy storms we had in the last year, and this image came back to my memory. What appears to be a lake, is actually a field for this herd of goats, and over near the green grass there was a tiny stream that severely overflowed its banks. As the goats were down to their last few feet of pasture, the owners came out with the tractor and cart. They loaded the young ones in the wire cages, and persuaded the nervous parents to follow them to higher ground. It was comical to watch, but the waters were still rising,so they got out at just the right time.

  1. Great shot. This is what Bryan Peterson calls a “story telling” photo. Great depth of field and interesting things in foreground, mid ground, and background. You seem to come upon some really good subjects for photos, and I don’t think it can be attributed to luck!!!
