That ewe should have lambed by now. Why not go back and see if you can
find the babies.
I'll bet there are two. I hope they are not to be some families Easter
dinner. But they'd still
be some weeks too young for that.
She has such a serene look on her face -- inscrutable is the word I was
looking for. I've been
back to look at that picture several times. Its great. Too bad her
children are to be murdered.

behind the head of the sheep became a distraction.
Markus. It is not among my first shots. So I do believe I'm close to taming
it ;-) It is heavy, 2,3 kg. So I wouldn't dream about shooting without
tripod.
I'm about to post something crappy, stay tuned ;-)

Hi Tim
I really like this portrait here but would wish it to be a bit softer
around
the sheep. For my taste it is over sharpened in post processing, could
that
be or maybe I'm just awaiting "crappy results" ;-)
Is this one of your first shots with the Tokina and what are your
impressions so far. How heavy is that beast?
greetings
Markus

That's not baaaad at all. If fact it is a very good portrait. I like
it with the background highlights, but its hard to say if it would be
better with them toned down.

scene set me in a near religious mood. There was something very

with her.
