Yesterday I had the pleasure of taking part in the photo call for the Jack and the Beanstalk Panto which is being performed at the Wyvern Theatre at Christmas. It took place at Roves farm on a very hot day. The cast, Keith Chegwin, Jennifer Greenwood, Samuel Parker and David Ashley seemed to really enjoy themselves feeding and stroking the animals. But I have to say the star of the day was Annie, the 20 year old cow that was used as a prop. Was a lovely gentle creature and she did everything we asked. Including posing with the panto cow which was just soooo funny, the guys in the suit were quite nervous at first, as was everybody really but she won everybody over and after a while everybody wanted to stroke, pat or scratch her. A star in the making I think.

I took 550 images so this really is just a random selection of the shoot.
