Lambs & Landscapes (Series)

[Rebel]

Evening all, so it stopped raining eventually today and the sun came out. So after losing my money on the Grand National I went out to take a few shots. This time I took my 55mm-200mm lens for the lambs and on some advice from Mike in the other thread (Ewes & Lambs) was determined to shoot them at about 1/800 sec to 1/1000 sec to freeze them, whether I had to bump up my ISO, adjust aperture etc.

I also took some landscape shots, C&C welcomed.

** I have updated the PP on some of these since I first posted them, I was rather tired when I originally done it last night

#1 - These two seemed like good friends, following each other about.


#2 - This is the cute little guy from the first thread... still brave as ever!


#3 - Here he is again.


Onto the landscapes...

#4 - I believe there are two red kites who make a guest appearance in this?


#5 - The sheep in this one are running towards me


#6 - I'd never seen these mountains from this POV before. This could possibly work in B&W?


#7 - Here is the landscape I have re-shot, no sheep this time!


#8 - Same landscape but with a bit more of the road


#9 - A photo of a farm I passed on the way to my location


Thanks for viewing
