 this was a case of getting the reward of an apple without giving anything of value in return .. the thing of value would'v been me getting a good photograph ..
i was trying to take photographs of these sheep for 'something' in particular ..
during the drought they were quite tame and would eat from my hand which made them extremely easy photographic subjects .. today i walked for half an hour, firstly to find them and then to follow them and try and tempt them to come to me with a large bag of reject apples .. they have become quite feral coz they've got enough feed right now and arent interested in the little titbits i used to give them ..
DAMN .. now i cant get close enough to take a good photograph so i'm putting this one in our 50 days ...

It may not be the shot you were after, but I'd be pretty happy to get a shot like that myself. Sadly I don't have to much access to animals. I really must visit the zoo as soon as it gets a bit warmer.

Haha, how rude! You would think after that delicious apple he would atleast give a little pose. Even so, you took a really clear photo, great job!

Ungrateful beast! I like the shot. Would it be worth it to clone out a couple of those stray stems of grass -- especially the one across his eye?

What a funny story. It's a pretty good pic as it is though. But I can imagine how great it'd be if they'd get close enough to eat from your hand.

Half a second...two things here

1. You dont think this is close enough for a good shot???? Are you mad??? I love it
2. Are we only meant to be putting duff shots in this challenge? Oh no! sadly I have been trying my hardest

Nice colors in the grasses, the apple hanging out of her mouth is cute.
