Thanks folks

(& CabanSail

)
Setup: Olympus E510
Old Nikon prime 135mm
ISO 100, F8, 1/200sec (handheld, thanks to in-body IS)
Spot metering (always use this with older glass)

Post-processing included increasing the 'darks', decreasing 'shadows' and then also increasing the contrast. My feelings towards it : the evening sun was casting a lovely shadow on the mountain. The mountain side (thats being highlighted) has a velvety feel to it, and your eye is also being drawn to the ridge. The 'sheep' give a sense of scale to it, and the ones that 'glow' in the background hopefully add to the shot aswell.
Glad so many people enjoyed it, please feel free to discuss or let me know what ye were thinking
