Thursday 17 May at the Devon County Show… this was the first day of this three-day show. 

Weather: a bit drizzly for much of the day.

Around 800 photos in the galleries from the Thursday sheep classes. With so much going on simultaneously in around 8 rings, I missed a few of the breeds completely, but managed to get at least a few photos of each the following sheep breeds in the Devon County Show 2012 gallery :

• Beltex  • Bluefaced Leicester • Devon & Cornwall Longwool • Devon Closewool • Exmoor Horn • Galway • Greyface Dartmoor • Hampshire Down • Jacob • Leicester Longwool • Lleyn • Manx Loaghtan • Norfolk Horn • North Ronaldsay • Poll Dorset • Rouge de l’Ouest (British Rouge) • Scottish Blackface • Shetland • Southdown • Suffolk • Teeswater • Wensleydale • Whiteface Dartmoor • Whitefaced Woodland

Sorry about the delay getting these online… I pressed the wrong button somewhere along the way and had to re-edit many of the shots from scratch.
