At one of the farms I used to shoot they were very devious, pretending to nibble grass in front of my tripod while slowly inching closer until they were sniffing at the legs and ready to knock it over and see where it fell. Cows are curious and sneaky. <br /><br />Many years ago I lived on the top of a hill surrounded by fields where cows grazed. After a long Friday evening of listening to music, a friend and I would often take walks up the road in the dark. Suddenly we’d hear sounds from the fields on both sides of the road as the cows stood and all at once began to urinate for us. It was, I suppose, their music.<br />Ted Rothhttp://rothphotos.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10327858.post-24383539894398983512017-01-07T12:58:14.683+01:002017-01-07T12:58:14.683+01:00I hope we never stop being Partners in Crime, Astr...I hope we never stop being Partners in Crime, Astrid, because THIS is what Life is all about for me.

I still regret I went to work. I am so glad that you were able to see fog/frost... it is magic, PURE magic. Fabulous pictures and I am glad we took the trip the day later. Those sheep... I wonder what they were thinking... and then 'me' Lady of the Polder'... I carry that tittle with pride. I love this place. So quiet, no people, for me heaven on earth. And yes blame it to the internet... and the rest is history. What an ending of 2016.... and a start of 2017.... Thank you for another year of dear memories.

They are indeed curious and often make my day.

We used to get frost back home in Winnipeg, but not so much here, I don't remember ever getting it here! However we have had fog so thick you couldn't see a metre in front of your face!! and that's crazy when you are out walking your dog and almost walk into someone ELSE walking there dog, coz you can't really HEAR in that thick of fog! So anyway haha, I dearly loved your pictures of the sheep in the fog! I'm sorry that they wouldn't come when Astrid 'called' though :) Something about those pictures made my heart leap though!

Lucky you.<br /><br />I had something similar when I left my little habitat in Ashland, Oregon back in 1976. My friend drove me to the Medford airport, and all the way down the 7,000-ft mountain it was a fairyland of fog and frost.
