Sheep - a photo on Flickriver

Sheep

            Explored!

Again with the annual photos...

Every year we go to the sheep and wool festival, and one of the highlights is the sheep herding demonstration, with the dogs. This year I tried and tried to get the shot I wanted, where you could see the sheep faces and the dog's face as the dog herded the sheep through the manuevers, and convey the sense of motion and mutual awareness, but someone was always butt first...I was there 20 minutes and took 150 photos and came close several times.

But I did get this of the sheep, and lo, the light was perfect and the sheep posed as sheep rarely do...

See last year's photo below. It was one of the confusing one's for me - my third most interesting photo but not explored - I guess magic donkies don't like sheep.
