Hi all, just got back from a week in Scotland and I think I nearly wore the shutter out.

Here's a couple of locals that we met at John O'Groats.

Cheers!

Is it me or does the nearer sheep have 6 legs and the further one only has 3???

I love the shot...although it may be a bit more appealing with a landscap crop. I don't see the balance that I think a square crop needs.

But those are just my 2 cents.

Ahhh, Scotland. Someday.

Nice shot! Agree w/ the landscape orientation, gives the feel of the expanse of a pasture...

This composition is just splendid

The crop works for me because this image is about the goats. The only thing I would nit pick is if you had a 'hair' more room on top, just so the rocks aren't quite so crowded into the frame. A minor detail though in a very nice image.

Heh, I know what you mean about the legs, took me a couple of looks and I still haven't decided. As for the crop, I played around with a couple of different ones, and settled on the square, but here's the original uncropped version for you.

Thanks for the comments!
