  1. This photo is especially meaningful for me. We rescue llamas and always enjoy seeing them in other surroundings. Thank you!

  7. I love this animal. It looks very fuzzy. Is this a special animal in Australia?

    Also, the photo is awesome!

  13. I admit, I thought this might be a post about llamas showcased in (movie) film – how random! But really, this llama family is just as delightful.

  41. Beautiful picture! Love how the Llamas are positioned not only diagonally, but also in order from the Llama with the biggest and longest coat, to the Llama with the shortest coat length. It’s truly a unique image to capture. The scenery is also an excellent contribution to the image, so natural and peaceful. Great job!
