Seven mountain goats perch on a rocky outcropping, their sure-footedness a testament to their mastery of their surroundings. The vibrant sun casts a golden glow around the peaks, illuminating the textured rocks and adding warmth to the scene. Snow-capped peaks rise majestically in the background while a river winds through the valley below.
