Great portrait of the ram. It's interesting how the horns curl around the front of his ears. Good lighting and detail.

At one point in my life I would have loved those horns as I made walking sticks for showing!...and travelled to many places in the South of the UK showing my work at County Shows....A fine shot here Tom

Tom, despite its dangerous looking horns, it has a friendly face. However, I don't hope that it's a trick to mislead us, my friend (☺ ☺ ☺).

The lighting really enhances your take here my friend. The details are about as good as it could get I think. Kudos on this one my friend, and it's nice to see you posting. tigs=^..^=

You really captured the detail in his horns. Great lighting and framing as well. He doesn't look to concerned over having his picture taken.

Nicely done, Tom. I do have a comment. This shot is so obviously one that should be done in portrait mode rather than landscape mode. Why did you choose to post it in landscape?

I am not sure what you mean by portrait mode Dorothy. Taller rather than wider ?. If so I agree. I cropped this to get the other sheep in back out of the picture and I always crop to 1920x1200 for my screen resolution which limits me , especially with portrait photos. The sheep where still when I was taking their pictures but when I moved to the right to shoot the two little lambs they moved right up , this was the mother and the best portrait of the bunch.

They seemed friendly Alex but bolted right up to the fence when I moved toward the lambs.
