Tour Scotland Photograph Judging Orange Sheep Strathardle

Tour Scotland photograph of judging orange sheep at Strathardle Agricultural Show, held in Kirkmichael, Perthshire, Scotland. The colouring of the fleece makes any white in their head and legs stand out to make them look more showy in the ring. With south type Scottish Blackfaces they use moorit which gives a really dark colour to hide some of the black wool in the fleece. The idea stems from the practice of tupping on the hill and with them being coloured you can see your tups within a flock of ewes at just a glance and at a distance. In the show ring the colour is to try and draw the judges eye.
