Mt Ausangate Camp

The end of day 1 of our approach to Mt Ausangate. It was a strange setting with the alpaca all around and the three alpaca herders who sat very still and stared at us for several hours. (Mount Ausangate, Peru - June 2006)

Re: Nice

Thank you very much. This was taken with a Canon PowerShot S45. I think the lighting is what made this photo look nice. It was late in the day, with clouds creeping in from the mountains behind us, creating this warm color.

Alpaca?

Is that what those fuzzy, sheep-like things are?

Re: Alpaca?

Yes, those are alpaca with their fluffy fur that makes all those soft blankets and sweaters. They're pretty cute.
