Lamb Photoshoot

Our lovely Shetland moorit ram lamb is 8 weeks old today. Realised I hadn't taken any photos of him in weeks so off I went with the camera. These are a few shots of him when he didn't have his back to me.  He's hardly recognisable from this shot taken when he was a day old. He's now milk chocolate brown and enormous!
