Have you read the latest edition of American Sheep Industry News? I placed second in the Scenic category for the 2011 Photo Contest. The results and other winning photos can also be viewed here on the web.

I took this photo on the farm in September of 2008, shortly after returning home from Peace Corps Belize. We had recently put a ram in the pasture with a flock of ewes. The photo's title "Grand View" is in reference to our flock name - Grandview Polypay, and the location of our farm in Grandview Township. The American Sheep Industry Association is also using this image for their Let's Grow campaign, which is encouraging U.S. sheep producers to grow their flocks to meet increasing demands for lamb and wool production.
