Very nice in-your-face portrait. It feels like this sheep has something important to express, but I can't really fathom it without anthropomorphizing and projecting my own feelings. Maybe it's the mutton factor. I like how the ear of the featured sheep occludes the eye of the next one behind, as if these aren't real living creatures but exploitable units. Okay, so I am projecting. The overall tones of sheep and hay are quite pleasing.

I'm not sure who would want to paint a scene like this but thats what it looks like to me - a painting. The more I look a this the more I'm liking it, simple yet effective.

Wonderful texture. In a parallel existence I'm a hand spinner. I can almost feel and smell the lanolin in the fleece.

I find the filter very distracting.

I really like how you've made the car stand out from the background.

I like this a lot, Marion, including your selective use of the filter. I often do something similar to tame an unruly background and put a stamp on my subject, so to speak.
