Claas combine cutting a nice field of wheat. Harvest fairly well cleaned up by now. F4.0IS on the 80D at F4.0 for nice detail on the machine.

Three nice suckler calves posing for the camera. Simmental and limousin the predominant breeds. Light fading at dusk for this so even at ISO 1250 and F4.0, I was only getting 1/200th sec.. You need quite fast shutter speeds with the constant movement of heads. Very inquisitive these guys so they don't stand still too long.

Back to the old farming stuff. A lovely spring evening for this - after a long, wet and dull winter. F5.0 and 195mm with the 70-200 f2.8IS for this shot. Handheld - so I bumped the ISO up a bit - still only 400 though. This is one heavy lens for carrying around for any length of time. Always difficult to get the sheep to pose. If you move too quick towards them, they leg it across the field. While this type of shot might not be overly popular on flickr - it is the sort of stuff that I can sell. Won't give up the day job just yet though.

A clean and healthy Holstein heifer calf lying warm and dry on a deep bed of straw. This calf is on an automatic milk feeder and has plenty of room to move around freely. High regard for animal welfare on this farm. This was taken with the 70-200 F2.8 wide open. Great for low light - but DOF is wafer thin at this aperture. As always with black and white animals, it is hard to keep the highlights from blowing. Hopefully just about managed it and kept the detail in the white face. Don't you just love the white eyelashes....

Another tiger shot from Dublin zoo. Magic drainpipe wide open for this. Shot though dirty glass. Wonderful creature - glad to be on the other side of the glass though. Love this lens for this type of shot. Spot on focus and sharp as a tack.
