Netherlands based photographer, Jurian Kriebel, has created a beautiful and compelling portrait series with goats as his subject. Photographed in a studio, the goats’ white fur contrasts boldly with the dark black background as they preen and express themselves reminiscent of humans. Kriebel uses a variety of angles to capture each animal, showcasing them in an often heroic and engaging manner. Kriebel’s camera of choice for the series was a Canon 6D with 28-135mm lens. For lighting he used a Yongnuo YN-560 flash off-camera through a softbox. The resulting images provide a dramatic, thought-provoking, and sometime comical look at goats like we’ve never seen them before.
