Light is everything in photography – that and a subject you want to photograph. The weather has been weathery, full of weather. It doesn’t encourage me to want to photograph. Boo.
So in lieu of light, I scrubbed the grass from the sheepy photo and upped some of the post-settings in Photoshop to make the ewe more impressionistic.
The snowdrops are here because there were a lot of them – snowdrops to the left of me, snowdrops to the right.

You really captured what a cutie that sheep was, David! I recall how she left her pals in the rest of the flock to come over to the fence to “visit” with us.
My, how thick her fleece looks in a photo!… 🙂
Additionally, your snowdrop photo has a lovely sparkly quality to it.

The Ewe is great isn’t she? I also like the snowdrops and think it is in fact a really good year for them. You probably saw my photos on Instagram that I took at Mottisfont? Well, they were growing in bountiful abundance there!!

Yes Mottisfont, National Trust – liked it on Instagram.
I wonder what the trigger is for all the snowdrops?

Cutie ewe! I’ve never seen so many snowdrops. I suspect they were planted, no?

Yes, I am sure they were planted – after that they spread with bulblets and seeds

“Here I am, stuck in the middle with ewe!” LOL, Hullo David (and Tamara: ) Was just wondering where you’d gone! There were some lovely vaulted church ceilings on (Escape to the Country) just yesterday – which of course made me think of your photos from
Cambridge…
Are the Snowdrops actually out already (and is this normal timing for them?)

Been busy! And we were just in Oxford and I photographed these in Oxfordshire about twenty miles from Oxford.
You can see in the comments that Nick photographed some in Mottisfont. That’s a National Trust property in Hampshire – which is pretty much in the middle of the South of England – so not many miles from where I photographed snowdrops.
I don’t think the snowdrops are early, I have seen them poking their heads out of the snow some years. I did see a few daffodils though, and they were early.

No, not that at all… I truly meant that I’d JUST been thinking of your vaulted ceiling photos… And then, not 24 hours had passed before you threw up a post: )
