Ag Day (Single)
DESCRIPTION
Agriculture day (Ag Day) is an annual event in most rural schools of New Zealand and I'm sure through out the world.
Children care for their pets at school until competition time.
I set up a studio at the school and with the help form the pets human I was able to capture portraits of the lambs and Kids (baby goats).
I also opened up the sessions to entire classes as a learning experience.
There's the saying "Never work with children and animals."
Well I Loved it.
