Yes, indeed.

I enjoy various aspects of the autumn you find. #7 (the sky at dusk?) looks awesome!

Fran - the trouble with sheep is, they p*ss and sh*t everywhere, and they like roses and tulips and all sorts of garden plants, more than they like grass. :( ;D

and the upside is that you can contain them with a mobile electric fence which is impossible with goats. And: The manure is good for your garden!

Post by: BEZ on September 30, 2018, 23:53:05: Excellent series David .....the pose of the dog made me think of one of my favorite photographs by Josef Koudelka.

Don't bother with letting in the sheep, I like the grass as is. It helps create a slightly mystical foreground to the image of your house .....nice.

Cheers

Post by: Akira on October 01, 2018, 12:50:21: Love #2 from the second batch as well. I also love that peculiar splited rock that gives some surreal feel to the landscape.
