Perhaps a tad subdued but with just the right amounts of 1st zone to make the silhouttes kick in with gusto. Bumping up.

love the little dot cows. great perspective on the size of the land and sky. Doesn't feel quite contrasty enough to me but still a very lovely picture.

this looks like it has a full range, but it comes across more as a tinted image than a true bw, which tends to dilute the strength of the image. you may want to try other methods for desaturizing your images.

I quite like the long shadows, but feel that the foreground is missing something.

Fabulous photo, the cows really bring perspective to the shot. Pretty rolling hill and nice contrasts.

I like dark trees, I like the velvety looking pasture with the cows dotted along the right hand side. The sky has enough contrast and character to be interesting but not so much that it draws your attention away from the pasture. Nice shot - 9

The silhouettes of the cows is very cool in this setting, cood composition and detail. I think AA would have approved of this :) I give it an 8. GL :)

Fantastic. I love how cloudy it is, yet lots of sunlight makes it to the earth. I like how the ground looks like clay.
