 Cropped to get the centre point right between the eyes..this is an old brick dovecot in a cowfield..every now and then a cow wanders in out of curiosity..I just happened to be there at the right time..although I had to wait 10 minutes for some cows to move from the front of the doorway.
Adjustments to contrast and sharpness.
Image rotated 1 degree to the right to offset the old building which was leaning to the left, Desaturated using channel mixer.
Small distracting light cloned out above the head of the cow & also ear tag.
Image cropped and resized

One mean-looking cow....looks like a rough neighbourhood though! Great shot.

hmm, not something you see every day.. an urban bovine. I like the use of black and white. she is well camouflaged, took me a second to deduce what was here. nice textures, good use of B&W. maybe a touch more contrast, the light is just a little flat. 8

Nice title, composition, and technically beautiful. The black and white works well. One of my top picks for the challenge.

This is great! Where on earth did you find a cow in these surroundings. It's very odd but in a good way.
