Yes
If memory serves correct it won the bbc country file award and chosen as 1 of the shots for the 2008 calendar.
 
Yep! Richard won. I remember seeing the clip on TV when the team went to surprise him at work I think?

Lovely image. I wonder did the Sun get his permission?

I doubt it because it says "viral of the week" or whatever. probably just grabbed it and ran.
 
Thanks for the PM to let me know! Much appreciated.

I've just returned from a week in the Highlands again (where I took the original shot) and read the message. I didn't get any permission from the Sun but it says its all about the funniest pictures going around on email, so someone may have juut forwarded it to them.

As thats the case I'm not really sure I could ask for money and if I did they would probabaly just remove it instead? Maybe I should just ask them to include a credit and a link to my website?

Any thoughts appreciated before I email them...
 
I doubt you'd get very far asking for payment but a credit could be useful in the future for referrals, I'd also have a look at how you can get search engines pointing towards your site for "leaping lamb".

I've said it before and I'm saying it again, tis a cracking shot :thumbs:
 
Thats pretty much what I was thinking, and thanks, glad you like it :)

I've just returned from a week on the Isle of Skye, so keep an eye out for a thread full of photos coming to a forum near you soon :D
