Well, he was happy - not so sure about her!
Anyone know what sort they are? They're very fluffy - would make great cushions!

Gosh...I've just been watching Frozen Planet on the i-player, and these two wouldn't have looked out of place on the Arctic Tundra. Maybe that's what they are...Arctic Sheep.
Really good shot, Phil.
:-)

Wow, they look like sheep in the snow, still I suppose it wont be long now! V

Love your processing here, makes them look like Icelandic sheep LOL
Maybe they are partly Cheviot.
They are very good looking.
slhoornstra06-Nov-2011 05:05
Oh!! They are so beautiful, delighted to meet this couple!!!! BBV
David Hobbs06-Nov-2011 03:32
Well they look to be a handsome healthy pair at least. They shouldn't be cold very often either.
Mary Terry06-Nov-2011 02:23
I would love to knit myself a cozy blanket from their wool. They are so soft looking! :) Beautiful shot!! V

Brian Samuel05-Nov-2011 23:14
They're both smiling. I've never seen a pair as fluffy as them.

Looks like its time for shearing. They do look like a handsome happy couple.
Ann...05-Nov-2011 21:35
A sweet couple, they look very content and all set for winter.
Stephanie05-Nov-2011 21:14
She looks blissfully happy too! Tell him to wipe that sheepish grin off his face! :)
Mairéad05-Nov-2011 20:47
Looks like they escaped the shearers. Beautifully soft and cuddly and your processing really suits the image.

Major cuteness!
globalgadabout05-Nov-2011 20:06
think they are Handspinner's Delight(s), a sub-species of the Orkney Plushfleece, renowned for their rich wool and tendency to bleat softly while in service as cushions..
Johnny JAG05-Nov-2011 20:00
They're sheep mate!
Guest 05-Nov-2011 19:59
Do they have long coats or short legs?
Guest 05-Nov-2011 19:56
really, very nice couple, and I like that true smile on his face :)
Sheena Woodhead05-Nov-2011 19:50
Don't know what sort they are but their wool looks soft and fluffy!
