Sheep
I really like the warm colors in this photo.

 * Support, pictures of sheep are inherently amusing, this one exceptionally so. The flaws that others see in the picture are too subtle for me to see. The Singing Badger 22:53, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment Did you apply a gaussian blur to certain parts of this photo? The bottom part of the beach looks oddly foggy. I like how the middle sheep is looking directly at the camera.PiccoloNamek 14:58, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Oppose, the sheep looking at the camera is the key element of this photo but unfortunately it is overexposed. Rhobite 22:49, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I don't think it's over-exposed. Just well lit. Raven4x4x 06:00, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Technically speaking, the highlight is, in fact, blown. ;)PiccoloNamek 08:49, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Support. I don't think it's overexposed (it's just the great Aussie sun); content-wise, it's very representative of rural areas. Enochlau 07:42, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Support. I like this a lot. Sometimes things are bright in real life. Raven4x4x 09:13, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
 * comment (please note I am not one of the photographic experts in this process, so it may be unwise to act on my pronouncements!) I think I'd enjoy it more if it were cropped differently. I find the top half of the picture dull, so maybe some of that could be lost, and perhaps some of the right side too, so that the star sheep and his immediate companions are more prominent. Anyone agree? --bodnotbod 11:00, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Personally I'm quite convinced that this photo is cropped to the best effect in the current version because to me that burnt dry grass on top is not only a great "aussie" type grass, but it contrast so sharply with the green grass the sheep are eating in the foreground (which happens to be next to a road). As to the RHS sheep, I kind of like it. --Fir0002 09:26, 29 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Support, its brilliant. Both the colours, the composition and the topic seem perfectly chosen for a wikipedia pic. Halibutt 23:40, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Hal, there is no template, please don't try to use it again.PiccoloNamek 02:44, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Support - I always like pictures of sheep but these are particularly amusing. I also, as above, like the contrast between the dry grass and the "alive" grass. --Cel e stianpower háblame 00:40, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
