The Digital Lightroom Photo Competition
(1/400, f5.6, iso-100, 250mm)
A few weeks ago I was asked to be a judge on a new photo-competition blog for all the great photographers around wordpress called The Digital Lightroom. Yesterday marked the launch of the first competition with the theme Spring.
This is a joint blog by me with 4 other great photographers (and judges there) and these are their websites:
Adrian Chillbrook – www.cornwallphotographic.com
Scott Marshall – www.skm1963.wordpress.com
Adrian Pym – www.adrianpymphotography.co.uk
Mark Simms – www.marksimmsphotography.com
Even some prizes to be won, so good luck!
My spring photo above was taken in the National park of Rio Martin, South of Zaragoza. These sheep are a special sort only living in Northern Spain called Ojos Negros (Black Eyes) and its obvious why!
(It´s also a repost of a B&W version)

Great shot. Love the facial expression on the sheep.
Thanks, this one sheep had a minute to spare and look me in the eye with its smart look
Ron.
Great capture! They posed and you nailed it. Good chemistry!
Thanks, Ellen, definitely trying to become a sheep-whisperer
But still think this was just beginner´s luck!
Greetings, Ron.
Beautiful image-
Thanks a lot for taking time out to comment, Meg!
Greetz, Ron.
Great photo – did you ask them to pose?
Carol.
Well, did not, but this one looking up was probably alarmed by the shepherd shouting at me
Thanks for stopping by, Carol
greetings, Ron.
It’s a nice photo, very cute!

Perfect moment! Beautiful photo.
Thanks, Stephen, Lucky to have one sheep that was noticing me while eating
Greetings, Ron.
Perfect shot
Thanks very much and all the best, Ron
How nice of him to have a look at you. The rest of them remind me of my students during instructional time.
haha, yeah i guess his shepherd waving his stick around at me behind them made that one look, the others were too busy grazing; but understandable, it was the only perfect patch of green in this barren valley
Greetings, Ron.
Me encanta esa ovejita que no hace lo que las demás !
Muchas gracias, Marie, me gusta esa tambien
saludos, Ron.
An astonished looking sheep, just eating some herbs
They look pretty special, huh? Thanks for your visit and comment, Franka!
Great Capture! Love it♥
Thanks a lot, Luiza, bit less serious and dark than normal, but hey its Spring
Looks great, the quality of the photographs make it an easy one to follow! Looking forward to seeing it on my feed
Thanks very much, Frank, glad you like it, hope I can keep up with the standard
All the best, Ron.
Great compo, and I love the way he looks at the viewer!
Thank you, Erassima, I really enjoyed your abtract shots too.
Greetz, Ron.
Ooh, gewoon een hollandse zie ik nu; ik hou je in de gaten
Beautiful pictures – yes beautiful and ugly, but both beautiful. I love the old bus in Madrid. That is where photography meets art. Thanks for visiting my blog. I’m following yours. Nice work!
Marsha
Thanks a lot, Marsha, guess with ugly I mean the destruction and the fact that lots of people see ugliness where I want to find beauty in photos
All the best to you, Ron.
Surely a wonderful spring image.
Beautifully captured!
Thanks, Lisa, just an example of what to expect there. Have a great week, Ron.
Your photography is brilliant!
Thanks so much, LuAnn, thats very nice of you to say; i´m flattered!
Greetings, Ron.
¡Muy buena!
Muchas gracias, Javier. Saludos, Ron
Nice idea, might enter, bulbs any one?
haha, guess we´re asking for that, but how to capture them is the question
Nice initiative! But spring is a long ways away here in the north, so how can I compete?
Well, youre closer to spring than the southern hemisphere and you have tons of photos archived that could fit, i know that
I can use older photo’s? Great!
Great shot. Thanks for the link Ron….I didn’t think of doing that.
Thanks and no worries, thought it maybe attracted people to see who´s who…
Have a great week! Ron
