[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
I'm not sure if a photo of a farm animal as the main subject is within the guidelines of this site, I couldn't find a proper category so I put it in the "food" category even though I don't eat lamb and those who do would probably not eat a LIVING one......probably not, you never know. I've posted pictures of cows before but with a prominent geographical landmark along with them or it. This time it's simply a sheep in a typically irish coastal environment. Taken early evening, the sun sets very late there in May, on a very very windy day. Just wishing a happy StPatrick's to all....

What´s up Capitán? Unfortunately, I´ve never been in Ireland but I like this photo to wish happy St.Patrick, I like the wind whipping the cotton hair of the animal. Wind in good for sex. Take care.

Very appropriate shot for St. Patrick's day. This really does evoke the sense of Ireland, with the Atlantic pounding in, the greenery, and of course the sheep. Great shot!

Lui, on se demande vraiment ce qu'il fait là. Bien vu !

Hi Tan
A fun note to accompany this pleasing shot of a typical Irish lamb! We really get a good feel of the fresh wind from the movement of the sheep's wool and the waves behind, and the rugged Irish landscape is nicely framed.
Regards, Susanna

Hi,
Another beautiful landscape! Good colours, details and composition!
Good note!
Have good weekend!
Thanks Ana:)

Hi Tan,
good idea, it's the day. A shot typically, green and sheep, well done.

HI Tan, surprise, surprise, I was expecting to see another Yemen shot, and got this radically different landscape; the common thing being that both belong to "orange areas" which I have not visited. In this one I like the colors of grass and sea, good diagonal - and a sheep in a very sheepish pose to add interest! Rgds, Daniel.

Hi Tan, nice portrait of this sheep and he (she?) is posing very well in the wind and the sun. An erergetic landscape.
Thanks and regards, Gerrit

Tan, la photo de cet animal serait mieux dans la catégorie nature, surtout qu'il doit être élévé pour sa laine. Quoiqu'il en soit ce monton a fière allure devant un paysage de rêve. Il vient peut-être voir les moutons d'écume de la mer !
La lumière est divine et la mer fait avec les rochers un fond de toute beauté.

Hej Tan,
Good capture of the sheep in front of the rough cliffs and the sea. I like the light also very much. Good work!

Hi Tan,

You say simply a sheep in a typically Irish coastal environment. That's true, but I'd say a simply beautiful sheep surrounded by amazing scenery. I love the detail in your photo as well as the rugged rocks in the water with the waves splashing into them. Great composition and so well captured! Happy St. Patrick's Day to you too!

Greetings,
Ann

Hi Tan,
By accident we saw on a Scottish calendar this evening that it’s St. Patrick’s day today. In Holland a unknown holyday. And now I see the pictures of Wes and of you dedicated to Patrick. Very nice.
Groet Rob

Merhaba Tan,
Yine güzel bir manzara sunmuşsun bize. Koyunda iyi poz vermiş hani...Selamlar, iyi haftasonları...

Hello Tan
Really well captured the sheep looks so well incorporated into the scene. Beautiful strong light.
well done
regards
Daniel

Hi Tan, congratulations by your great gallery that perishes to me very good, this photo pleases me by the atmosphere of the sea that seems that it leaves the screen and the detail of the ewe that is very peculiar to see it near the coast so.

A greeting.......... Paco

Hi Tan,
The lamb looks very interested in you. Maybea she knows you would not eat her. ;-)
As usual you got a well composed photo with very beautiful colors and great ligth.
Take care,
Ricardo

Hi Tan. Happy St. Patrick's day to you too. You could also classify this under Nature or Daily Life. I see I posted a wannabe shot but you posted the real thing. The black rocks in the background remind me of the lava rocks along the Oregon coast. Great shot Tan!

Hi Tan

I like the nonchalant pose of the sheep, & the superb emerald green color & sharpness. The seascape as a backdrop works well here. Congratulations!

Hi Tan
A very traditional scene here. I like the angle of the light coming almost head on. The exposure is well managed and the details very good. The sea in the background adds some good additional impact too. Very rustic and romantic. Well done.

Salam Capitaine.
Photographier c'est dessiner avec ses yeux; c'est ce que vous pratiquez avec brio.
J'apprécie la luminosité de ce contre-jour qui donne un bon relief à cette composition.

Salam Captain. photography is drawing with our eyes; it is what you practise with brilliance.
I appreciate the luminosity of this back-light which gives a good relief to this composition.

Hey Cap'n - terrific shot - its amazing and in the context of the whole thing - a fabulous postcard image, well done, as for eating sheep - never eaten a whole one! LOL

Hi, Tan!
Ideal composition - main subject alone on contrasting green and dark blue. Full of emotions!!!
Real postcard (or poster 2 x 3 metre)...

Ivars.

Hello Captain Haddock!

I don’t know if you’ve got your nickname from the seven seas you had traveled, but it’s unbelievable to see how many country’s you’ve visited!!!! I’m really impressed! I’ve look at your photos and they are really fascinating.

This one caught my attention because of the great colours, superb composition and interesting subject.

André

Hi Tan
