Llama Portrait

in #animalphotography7 years ago (edited)

Llamas are popular animals in the Andes since they provide wool for clothing as well as meat and can survive easily on barren land. In wide parts of Southern Bolivia there are herds of domesticated llamas roaming the Andean highlands. Luckily, this Llama decided to pose for this portrait and not spit on me!

Awesome shot! That would easily qualify for the portrait contest too :D

Haha, I actually thought about tagging portraitphotography but I am not sure if animal portraits would be accepted :D

Yes they are beautiful and found all over the andes. This photo was taken during my 1000 or so kl mountain bike adventure through the Ecuadorian Andes a couple years ago. Happy New Year my friend!

I loved the Llamas and Alpacas in South America, they always look so funny! So you did a bicycle trip in Ecuador as well? Wow!
Happy New Year!
