This was a fun assignment-the 4-H livestock show and sale. The actual event doesn't always give up the most interesting shots, but the backstage and feature potential is endless. I could've shot all day. I also learned several things-sheep are not cute and cuddly at all. They kick and are quite temperamental, which means you have to be aware of the hooves at all times when shooting or you get a surprise kick in the back. Narrowly avoided multiple times. And pigs are apparently very emotional creatures. At least that's what the girl in the pig pen told me as she laid in the pen with her pigs after they didn't place in their competition. She felt the pigs were upset and so she climbed in to comfort them. A very caring little girl.
