Day 55 - The Stare!

Marion and Michael came prepared with their walking boots so we decided to get up early and head out for a walk in the gorgeous peaks. We booked a table at the Ladybower Inn for a pub lunch and then went and parked our car by Derwant Dam. We spent a couple of hours going for a walk, it was grey but stunning. I love living in Sheffield with the peaks on my doorstep. I took a number of shots of the scenery and landscape which are a lot better than this shot but I loved this photo of the cow/bull! I've wanted to get a shot of a cow's nose and eyes for a long time so when I saw these cows I thought my luck was in and took this shot. I saw it was badly out of focus so was going to take another shot when Marion pointed out that the cow was getting a little fractious and was actually a bull so I should walk away before anything happened!! There was a wire fence separating us but I don't think that would have stopped him if I annoyed him! I'll get my shot another time, this will remind me I need to do it!
