Hi Cynthia -

This is one of favorite parts of the world, so I'm always drawn to view images made in the area. I like how you include the mountains in the far distance to give a sense of scale not only to the flock of sheep, but to the broad emptiness of the plains. Personally, I would prefer to see the sheep larger and closer to the front of the image. Because of the current scale, the sheep are small specks against the background. Perhaps if you went to move closer you might capture more of the sheep. You might also lower the camera angle to include less of the sky and give the proper perspective to the mountains. Because of the current angle, the mountains appear much lower than they do in reality. One of the aspects I enjoy about this area is how the mountains (Pryor??) dominate the landscape and seemingly reach up into the sky. That perspective is lost here. Thank you for sharing this image and for reminding me of the beauty of this area.
