2000 sheeps on the road

Transhumance
Transhumance


In my village lives a sheepers family with 2 children and 2000 sheeps. Each year at the end of spring they leave the dryness of Provence and walk to the green fields of the Alps. In 2006 i spent some weeks walking with them and with my wife and daughter.
Just another life than beeping at every twitter update :)

And I thought you were joking about the 2000 sheep, when I read the title! But there really are 2000 sheep! My goodness gracious!

Hi Patrick:
This one is especially amusing for me because I ran into a similar scene back in October while shooting foliage in Utah. The sheep were moving in the opposite direction however, towards me, and I just had time to jump out of my car and grab a few frames before turning around to get out of there before being overrun. Already a camper and several cars were surrounded and stuck. Maybe I'll post mine sometime just for fun but your's is much better. Nice work as always!
