Description
This photograph was taken in Newfoundland at Cape St. Mary's on a morning that was extremely foggy. Before the fog lifted there was a small herd of sheep you could hear but not see, and then they appeared as the barrier rolled away. This is one of those sheep. See how close he is to the edge of the mountain? Doesn't it look like the animal could easily fall into the sea? It was so amazing to watch them walk along the cliff with no apparent distress. It was as if they were walking to a beat of a drummer we did not see or hear. It reminds me of the song."Where He Leads Me I Will Follow". A scripture connected with this idea of a sheep following is John 10: 3,4... " He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice." What a wonderful example we have in this Bible scripture of faith and trust to follow the voice you know...even when it's foggy! Several filters were added to give this photograph a painterly effect.
