Locality

New camera in the house, so we took a walk and did some shooting this afternoon.



misc
My neighbour's sheep and goats.

misc
A local rock and tree.

carving
A crouching pig, oak, after the fashion of Han dynasty jade carvings. My work of a couple of years back. (Not from this afternoon's walk, obviously, but a test of the camera's macro capabilities.)

Oh, wow. I live in a big city, and I'm always surprised when I realize that some people live in places where their neighbours have sheep and goats. Great pics!

Thank you!

It's a little odd for me as well--most of my growing up, we lived in an area where there weren't chickens, let alone sheep.

It's mostly hobby-farming, here in my town--I think this fellow keeps his sheep and goats as pets. There's a couple of small dairy farms, and horses are probably the most common large animal.

Thank you!

Cameras are fun, aren't they? :-)

Wow, I keep forgetting that the rest of the country has snow! 8(

Bhuel, it's almost all gone now, if that's any consolation.

Was up to fifty yesterday. The weather gods must be crazy. ;-)
