This really has the look and feel of a PF album cover. The piece of sky in the top left adds tremendously to the composition and makes it feel like your own creation instead of just a photo of someone else's art. 9.

Ho-ho! I know where this is and in fact have two walls in my house painted by the same artist ('cept it's chickens & ducks and hollyhocks, not cows; painted walls were in the house when we bought it).

Focus could be a bit sharper in this one. Looks a little soft around cow eyes.

The picture is a little tilted, I think. There might be a little oversharpening, too, as evidenced by the glow in the blue section next to the roof. I'm also not 100% sure how the title pertains to the picture, but it is an interesting subject. Too bad it was basic editing or I woudl have suggested you get rid of the red pole in the front.

Sweet connection! Bugged by the fact that the door is cropped off, though...

Seems like just a straight shot of someone elses art... cool find though. Works for the challenge. Could have gone with something different as far as perspective or composition so as not to just be photographing a wall.
