No Drama Here

Quite a few years ago I read a cheap novel about a photographer. The only bit I can remember was where he saw a flock of sheep coming over a hill and he took a picture (probably on a battered old Leica or a Nikon F2 loaded with Tri-X). The writer made it all sound quite dramatic and lovely. I think there was quite a bit of sex in the story too. But I can't recall a mention of wellies or Velcro so I don't think any sheep were involved.
