23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
The sheep and the abbey

I was walking towards Mont Saint-Michel, looking for something different to photograph, Herds of sheep are not uncommon in the area, but this morning they were moving towards the Abbey kind of forming a line, when the last one stopped and looked back at me, as if posing for the picture.
