Taken during the Usefilm get-together in Drenthe. Titia Geertman, who organized the trip, took us to a shepherd with a herd of Drenthen Heathsheep, and we accompanied them on their stroll.
Excellent shot, Hermen. I'm sorry I missed that event. Too bad, other things to do. Next time, I hope to be there, though! I like the low camera position. It makes the herd tower out over his flock. Beautiful tones and a great pose; Weatherbeaten, with lots of experience and just living life. Very strong atmosphere. I like the depth of Field, very clear on the subject. Maybe a bit hard on the contrast, the blue in the shady parts of the coats looks a bit black; a minor thing, and besides, also a subjective opinion. It doesn't really affect the photo nor its quality. Just an observation....
