Sheep Stampede

Third photo from Montezuma Hills wind farm.  As promised, the sheep!   I had never seen a sheep stampede before; I didn't know they could run so fast!  There was a fence line in my way, so I had to hurry and stand in the door frame of my car to get this photo.  Once I saw a photo of Ansel Adams photographing from the roof of his car.  He had mounted a huge piece of plywood on the top of the vehicle, and he was standing on it, with his tripod, looking into the viewfinder.  It would come in handy!  Not that I can imagine crawling up to the roof of my minivan, but it would have improved the angle here, I think.

This is a part of the US I've never been to and rarely even see photographed. Thanks for posting it.
