I am trying a fast lens tomorrow so will see how it all turns out :-) I can't go on my knees at the moment as I have 6 stitches in the left one. I was supposed to have them out yesterday but they want to keep them in till Monday now. ( My lovely dog decided to chase a rabbit and dragged me through a barbed wire fence ) I have a 35mm lens with an aperture of 1.4 so will try that and see. Thanks for the feedback.

Yes :-) There are hundreds of them in the fields near me and the dogs just go ape everytime they see them. I have thought of trying to capture them all on camera but think the photos would be pretty boring as they just sit on the field staring into space the most of the time :-)

They would eat one of them for breakfast :-)

I never went to Chester in the end stayed in Wrexham to photograph the victorian market ( big mistake). I think Wrexham has died, town was dead, most shops shut and the market was awful. Will have a look through my shots but it seems pointless.
