Just a gorgeous looking sheep who looked rather bored processing the green stuff. The sunlight and sweet little pose made her look quite special I think!

And I always thought photos of sheep are boring, this one is brilliant!

Hilarious shot Jon, I wish that all the voters would have seen that little bit of grass sticking out. The gaze on the sheep’s face is gorgeous; a lot of extraordinary things are being said here about animals and their world.

I didn't do this challenge and so missed a very wonderful shot! The exposure is perfect here! Amazing, simple, and effective!

If only that was a pipe sticking out of “Fluffy Clouds” mouth. Then this would have been beyond extraordinary. Very funny guy. Love it.

This is really a heart-warming image to me. The sweet look on the animal's face, along with that sweet bit of greenery hanging out of its mouth, as if it's chewing on it thoughtfully, as a person might chew on a stalk of grass, really makes the viewer feel connected to the subject. The diagonal lines in the landscape add a strong dynamic to the image, and the absence of almost any bright color other than green really gives this impact as well. I've gone back and forth trying to decide on a score for this, and I've decided overall it's a 9. I hope others appreciate the beauty of this "mundane" creature you've captured as I do.

Priceless expression on this animal's face! Saturated colors do make this image special.

Nicely shot. Not mundane.

This doesn't really meet the extraordinary requirement on the challenge.

I love that bit of grass hanging out of his mouth. It really adds to the shot.

When I was a kid, I saw more sheep than people - certainly mundane for me. This made me laugh.

I really like this guy - a sweet expression looking into the camera. I'm not sure how it's extra-ordinary.

Beautiful shot :) This is the type of thing that I could only hope to see for myself. He looks like he is quite intrigued by your presence, yet the meal continues :) Excellent capture.
