Sheepies

I went out with Amanda and Brit today to photograph some sheep herding out at Alta-Pete.  As always, it was fun watching a dog do what it was born to do. And pretty amazing too.

The victims sheep...


Brit in action...




Brit at "rest"...



The barn cat (who ran across the field at full speed after watching and visiting for a bit with Brit)...


As with photographing any sport, it takes practice and I'd love to shoot more of it.  I don't really understand the dynamics of herding and I think that would go a long way in improving my photos too. I don't actually know if Brit is doing what she is supposed to be doing in these photos - they could be good examples of herding or bad ones, I have no idea! Sorry Brit if I've posted an "embarrassing moment" without knowing it. LOL.

I'm sure someone will be able to twist my rubber arm to get me back out there again.  :)
