but life anyway. I spent some time with a Shetland sheep farmer who mainly produces wool, which according to him rivals Merino in its softness. The lambs are just days old and so adorable you want to take them home! They tire easily though and basically snuggle down wherever they happen to be, which usually isn't far from mom.

All taken with the Olympus E-30 and the ZD 12-60mm lens. Morning light was somewhat cooperative. Comments welcome. Thanks for looking.

thanks. That little guy was very patient...I kept accidentally waking him up while trying to get a shot of him sleeping. The indentations where his horns will be are so sweet. Irresistible.
