    Thanks Kedi,I took these while we were away visiting my sister in Devon.I didn't even realise that the Ewe had got her tongue out until I downloaded them.The cat belongs to my sister and I was trying to get a silloette of the tree in the twilight.I couldn't beleive how the camera picked out the cats eyes.The other photo I took just after doesn't show the cats eyes effect.It makes it look almost owl like [​IMG]

    Particularly like the ewe and the cat pics, Kandy - fantastic to get both of them as a surprise! :D Sometimes you just can't believe what you get in your photos - MIL has one framed of her last cat, Geranium, watching the flames in the open fire, as she regularly did. It wasn't until we were all looking at the pic that we saw that one of the flames was in the shape of a cartoon cat!

    Thanks MF and Dendi.I am still not sure about the cow one.I might change it for something else.It just amused me the way it strolled up and rested it's nose on the metal gate and was sniffing my camera lens :eek: :D

    No, she rolls it in her self, then stands there pretending to be trying to get it out, the idea being that I will get it and then throw it, they're a crafty lot. :D

    I've got a few thoughts at the moment, Marley, and have been snapping here and there but unfortunately nothing earth-breaking or mind-shattering or competition winning ... but I'll have a go.
