  When I saw this and read your narrative about getting in the ring I remembered your boxing photos thought those poor sheep don’t stand a chance LOL! Very nice work.

  I thought they were in disguise and going to ROB THE PLACE !!! Like the B&W think it makes for a more powerful presentation.
They don't look happy with the entire situation.. Perhaps the losers become RACK OF !!!

  The first time I saw sheep in their coats I was astonished. They seem to take it in stride. I do like the b&w as it sets off the rings around the eyes. Neat!

  Just got back from a visit to the state fair with my grandkids. I came back with several shots of simarly clad sheep, none of which looks nearly as good in color as your b-w conversion. I'll have to revisit them in monochrome. Thanks for the inspiration.
