Loanleven Farm in based near Almondbank in Perthshire Scotland. It stocks cattle, sheep and pigs and is home to the Wilson Family. The farm has been in the family for decades but has only in the last couple expanded its vision.<br /><br />I began shooting at the start of July 2007 and hopefully will carry this through until July 2008 covering the changes on the farm throughout the seasons.<br /><br /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5088461436703207074" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="255" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_uhOycHdJRLU/Rp3Yt4P37qI/AAAAAAAAAAw/cteZZarplxI/s320/IMG_7694+copy.jpg" width="364" border="0" /><br /><p>Head stockman Brian is in charge of looking after all the animals on the farm.

The day was organised in conjuction with Perth Young Arts. The day was split over two sessions with the young artists learning techniques in drawing the pigs on the farm.<br /></p><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5088463717330841298" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="268" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_uhOycHdJRLU/Rp3ayoP37tI/AAAAAAAAABI/FBqMc-aYEPI/s320/IMG_8101.jpg" width="372" border="0" /><br />Thankfully the rain stayed off, a nice change from the last few weeks. Still at least the pigs appreciated all the lying water.<br /></p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5088464258496720610" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_uhOycHdJRLU/Rp3bSIP37uI/AAAAAAAAABQ/EQeSaTl4w04/s320/IMG_8375.jpg" border="0" /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2303194307580813282-5943566652790014088?l=loanleven.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Shaun Wardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08942927648556078402noreply@blogger.com0
