Wow, Pat - this is a fabulous image, my friend!! The point of view, colours, textures, lighting and composition here all are exceptional!! :o)

No wonder, though, that 'they' talk about steep countryside like this as being 'mountain goat' territory - lol!! ;o)

I grew up on Norfolk Island, and my mother had to fight with this staining red volcanic dirt, too!! I was the eldest child with a number of younger brothers!! ;o/ #7574953
