Chamois in his Alpine Element

Such an unexpected gift on one of the busiest ski days of the year! Thank goodness the long lens was in the rucksack as the chamois was a long way off, hence it is not as sharp as I would like. I was literally shaking as I got off the lift, praying he would stay there. Thanks to Steve for coming over to ski or we would not have seen this.
