Ever Feel Like You're Being Watched?

I spotted this twisty tree on a hill along the road from Lochwinnoch to Muirshiel Country Park. The sheep appeared at the right moment :-)

Fine shot. Nosey sheep (they're normally running away when I want to use them in a composition!).

I love the brilliant color and the lone sheep. That sheep makes the image live. I would prefer being watched like the sheep than with all the video cameras in public, today
