Mr Billy Goat and His Wife “Don't approach a goat from the front, a horse from the back, or a fool from any side.” - Yiddish Proverb
In the next village from us, out on the pasture, the Shepard has left his flock of sheep and goats to graze. Now after my success, if that's what you can call it, of photographing the cows in our village (Cows part 1 and Cows part 2), I was full of confidence that this would be a piece of cake. I have heard that goats, particularly the Billy's can be quite aggressive, so was pleased to see that they were controlled by a net fencing of which I had no trouble staying this side of safe on. The only problem was that it, the fence, kept on getting in the way; especially with the wide angle shots. So I get down on my knees and slowly poke the lens through the mesh of the fence. BLAT...the bloody thing was wired. Wired to a nuclear freakin power station judging by the wattage sent through me. Once in a life time you'd think would be enough, but twice in 2 days, somebody is trying to tell me something. Maybe I should try less dangerous subjects such as war or the inside of sharks mouths because cattle are doing my heart and family jewels no good at all.
