    Cow and Calf - three flies left

    I felt spring a little working on these cows today. I left only three of those bothersome flies on them. There were A LOT of flies. Cow and Calf - three flies left

    Wonderful color, detail, composition and obviously good rapport with the cattle to get them to pose so well for you!

    If you can catch their attention, while they are wondering what sort of creature you are, it is possible to get some nice shots like these. But they soon lose interest and return to more interesting things like munching grass.

    Very nicely juxstaposed, Susan. Also there is a certain feeling about it, perhaps "Don't mess with us!" I think that the angle of the calf's back gives a certain drama to the image.

    Very nicely exposed apart from the sharpness. I love the looks on their faces.
