I read that you were waiting for the sheep to form a heart shape with their horns but i didn't actually see that when first looking at the picture because what caught my eye was the emotion of the photo. The eyes and body language of the rams speaks. Great shot

I took this shot in thr campground in Radium Hot Springs BC.Time
This was mid day when the sheep were lazy and easy to spot.Lighting
I had my cpl on as I was taking landscapes when these guys showed up.Equipment
D610 and a 70-300mm fx lensInspiration
I saw them rubbing against each other, they were sort of affectionately playing. I was hoping they were going to rub their heads together, thinking that maybe it would form a heart shape if it was just right. I waited for a bit and took some other shots and for a brief second they positioned their heads perfectly for me. I think I caught the affection in their eyes and fittingly enough, they for somewhat of a heart shape with the horns and chins.Editing

Be patient and stay awhile. Don't spend your entire time looking at them through the camera. You never know what they will do next!
