Not a fan of this, but mostly because I just don't really like the image itself. The picture is good, though.. my only suggestion would be to get the udder more in focus, rather than the top of the leg. :)

The only thing that could make this shot better is if a drop of milk was coming out. Great job.

I had hoped I'll see a close-up or two...... nice change from seeing the whole cow.
Well done, nice and crisp and you managed to disappear what might have been a very distracting background.

Good creative idea. The hair is a little blown out. Nice use of a dark background to set the udders apart.

Good composition and like the title

Interesting take on the subject. I would rate it higher if the udders were in focus. Also, I think this may have been a better B&W photo. ~6

Border really doesn't do anything to enhance this photo.... it's too thick and gets lost at the bottom of the image. Seems a little noisy as well, but not overly so. Overall not bad

If this shot had been sharper or more in focus I would have scored it a 10. Nice composition and I like the black background.

I was going to do something like this from our state fair but it was the week before and I couldn't use it. Nice details and capture like those spotted udders.

Great close up. IT seems just a touch out of focus on my monitor. I like the speckled teats!!!
