 A growing number of bronze, larger-than-life-size steers and their cowboy escorts moo've along Pioneer Plaza - adjacent to the Dallas Convention Center. This bronze cattle drive is located on the actual Shawnee Trail drive of the 1850s - and is the largest bronze monument of its kind in the world

I love this place. I was in awe the first time I saw it. There is also a great cemetery right behind it with some very old graves.

This leaves me wondering how many more there are on the left hand side (i.e. the crop is a little too tight for my liking) and I would have preferred it in color. Still a great shot for the challenge!

I really like that the height of the shot is at the same level as the animals. Gives a great feeling that you are there at the scene. It would be interesting to see shots of the first bull with the reflection in the water if you have any after the challenge.

Wow, this picture really got my attention...I wasn't quite sure what I was looking at when I first saw it. Beautiful.
