20111030 - Sad and Lonely

...and probably poorly :o((

This was the only sheepy in the field, just moped about with its head down like this. Occasionally walked around in circles. Not a bit happy :o(

Wonderful warm light and blurred background! V

Maybe he's sad the clocks went back yesterday...
Faye White31-Oct-2011 16:45
Poor thing... :(

I was guessing 135mm but the 70-200 f/2.8 is magical too.

Wonderful capture with that background, this photograph has feeling, good work Phillip. V

The sheep does look sick, shame :-(
Love the bokeh and golden light.

I don't think they like to be alone!! Nice light though and great background colours.

Nice shot, Phillip...not a happy sheep at all
globalgadabout30-Oct-2011 21:30
a proper 'sad-eyed lady of the lowlands'...vibrant, angled bokeh behind this melancholy moper...

Poor thing, very nice shot to cheer him / her up though.
Stephanie30-Oct-2011 20:31
Awwww ~ poor little sheepie! Go give her a hug Phil! :)
Guest 30-Oct-2011 20:31
That's a wonderful composition.

I wanted to make a wise crack about all of its friends having been Sunday roast, or him being the last to be picked ... but that would be mean and in poor taste.
Whatever the cause he certainly looks melancholy.

Sad and lonely, but beautiful nonetheless.
Máire Uí Mhaicín30-Oct-2011 19:45
Poor old thing. She's suffering from separation anxiety.

Chris30-Oct-2011 17:33
She (?) does look unhappy. Hope you tried to cheer her up a little.
