[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Main market. Tomorrow over 60,000 goats will be scarificed to the Hindu Goddess Durga. Everyone who can afford to have some goat will feast on holy meat. This goat must have heard some nasty rumors about goats leaving the mountains and never returning again. He is putting up a very spirited fight. (Do goats have flocks????)

Hi gloria

A superb tonal range with excellent sharpness & contrast in this superb b&w. A marvellous daily life scene. The goat looks vulnerable & uncomfortable. Good work!
