I went to the link, and the second picture is one I'd gladly use - but strangely enough, that one is not clickable to enlarge (the first one is).<br /><br />Adrian, maybe the sheep are warmer under an insulating cover of snow, like in an iglu, unless it gets too much and too heavy.

It is surrounded by timber, though we have driven within a mile and hiked to the top for extraordinary viewing. The stone wall pic is my favorite. I imagine strong men spending many hours constructing it, wonder who they were and suppose life was quite a bit different in those days.

And even with the best wool covering myself, I'd get cold if there was nothing but cold from underneath and above, and the wind lashing across the field.<br />The second picture is one that makes me want to nick it, if I'll do another Yorkshire calendar again. I've made some calendars for friends and family with mostly my own pictures, but as I've never been to Yorkshire in the winter (yet), I don't have anything that matches December to February.
