Shear Exhaustion

[JH Tugs]

I guess the title makes more sense if you know that this guy (Randy Pincent of the Wauka Valley Farm in Murrayville, GA) is straightening his back after shearing yet another sheep. I find his face fascinating, so I thought I'd share. Hope you enjoy it!

Canon RebelXT, 85mm (AF-S 17-85 IS), 1/60s @ f/5.6. Converted to B&W in Lightroom.

He does look like he is concentrating !!! Can't say I've met many sheep shearers !!!! but .......... where is the sheep !!!!!!!!!!

[JH Tugs]

*smiles* A good question. Ideally I'd have loved to get a picture with sheep and/or shearers in frame, to tell a better story.

Is this fellow always so intense?:eek: Love the capture...:D

[Fabs Forns]

Agree, very interesting face!

Would be nice to see what he's looking at. It would also be nice to not see the bars in the back so bright and more space on the left. Good choice going B&W on this one.
