 My favorite cow. We were feeding her fresh grass this evening. Roxanne.... what a sweetie. I'm sure you recognize her, but she's the only one who comes up to the fence and peers down at me as I sit on the ground. HA!

For all of you that were bothered by the fence, I really liked it. Thought it added some texture and the line is parallel with the tree behind her. Thanks for all the nice comments!!

I love that you have a Cows Collection. This one is my favorite. The color and contrast are perfect. Not to mention her expression. Great job. Nice portfolio!

Great angle, Judy! I love these oddball angle shots on horses and cows. :)

I always love a nostril shot ;-) Ok, maybe that's 'cows only'. Great tones and texture here. Congrats on the score... especially considering that some people hate barbed wire, and others hate farm animals... you had a double whammy!

Given your comments during the challenge, I'd convinced myself that you had done a pun on the title instead of another cow. Now, I hope to see this ol' girl again in future challenges ;-)

I love this photo. She is darn near the cutest cow I've seen. I just love your connection to those animals. You can see it in your photos of them!

Great perspective of the cow, shame about the barbed wire and the tree.

Two great cow shots in one competition. Great colors, nice composition and the detail is sharp. Bumping up.

Meets the challenge, the wire running across the eye is distracting but it has good focus & details. I like the sepia tone.

Great angle and colour on the cow is nice but I find the barbed wire across the face distracting

I really like the sepia tones here - it really works for the image. Excellent DOF as well. I just wish that this were a bit more zoomed out so the ears weren't out-of-frame. Great shot though. :)

whoever put that wire there really screwed up your shot! Imagine how great this would be without it! But what are you going to do? If you cut it for the shot you could be in big trouble! :-)

Love the texture on the cow -

Awwww. . . this is AWESOME! I love the little flecks of grass on her nose.

Wire is disturbuing...

I like this, but I think you could have exaggerated the viewpoint even more for extra impact. A wider lens and even lower viewpoint with the camera could move this from a good shot to a great shot.
