"1 day old Alpaca" shots.... · **1 Like**

Some "1 day old Alpaca" shots.... invited to a friends who breeds Alpacas on Hindmarsh Island..... he's an ex Canon shooter who now has a Sony ARII and is buying the sony lenses bit by bit. Anyway.... couldn't make the birth yesterday so 1 day old it is....K3 shots.... mostly I like the flexibility of my Sigma 70-200/2.8 for this sought of thing..... but took a couple of fisheye shots.....seemed a square crop kind of day!

Very nice....how could you not like that.

Horseradish, mustard, mint sauce, what do you eat with one of these?

And yes I could probably manage a whole one.

What a cute little one. Mom's hair looks like it has already been knitted into a sweater in the second shot.

Ok admit it... no one know the answer then.

I will just have to embarrass myself, next time I'm at the restaurant.

I have no idea.....don't think I have ever heard of, or seen, Alpaca on the menu. As far as I know they are kept for fibre production, not food.....but then again, I have been wrong before.

Kerrowdown's joking, Mallee Boy. :-)

Of course it would be crumbed cutlets.

Save the Alpacas.... Save the Alpacas.... They are so stinking cute! Love my Alpacca sweater! On the other hand I did just eat Charro beans with with wild hog meat. Feral hog.... Now those ain't cute but really tasty. Lol, can you 'crumb' feral hog cutlets?

Really, you can't be eating in the right establishments.

Of course you can... if you can get it to lay still long enough.

**Mallee Boy** · 12-16-2015, 03:26 PM

OK...can I have my leg back now ?

Of course you can, I thought you knew me better than that.
