A Lakeland scene on a bright winters day.
The image shows a small flock of Herdwick sheep grazing by the shore of Buttermere in the Lake District, Cumbria, England with Fleetwith Pike rising in the background.
One of them is ahead of the others who appear to be following the leader.
The colourful paint markings on their backs are "tup-marks" used by farmers to track breeding and activity.
95% of all Herdwick sheep are found in Cumbria, making them an iconic symbol of the area's landscape and cultural heritage.
Herdwicks are known for being the hardiest of all British hill sheep breeds, well-suited to the harsh conditions of the high fells.
Lambs are born black, and their fleece turns a distinctive grey with a white head as they mature.
The breed has a natural "hefting" instinct, meaning they tend to stay on their specific area of the fell without extensive fencing.
Beatrix Potter, the author and illustrator, was a keen Herdwick breeder and played a key role in preserving the breed.
