I did the local photo tour on Sunday and I found this Hippy Cow.
She was not as lonely as the photo shows, as she had lots of Hippy friends...
She's really cool, the only thing missing are the sunglasses! ;)

PS - I tried a new frame on this picture.

Hi Lili,

I think it's the time for him to cut his hair . . to be able to see things . . ha ha . .
Great PP work my dear friend . .
Great sharpness and fine detail image

Tfs,
Tjutjut

Many thanks for your kind words on Small ant .

Highland Cattle, excellent!!

I love these animals, they always remind me of home and they are wonderful photographic subjects. Not very often you see much beyond the hair, so the teeth here are a great wee touch. Nice shot :-)

Hi Liliana,
Nice catch and composition of this Hippy Cow, good colors and sharp picture, Beautiful frame and details, TFS.
well done.
Michel

Very nice. Beautiful, rich colors and good composition.

Not sure I like the frame though. I find the upper left color of it pulls my eye away from the subject.

TFS,
David

hehehe, caraghios personaj !
Cu rama nu-s, insa, de acord.
De fapt cu rama n-am nimic dar ar fi trebui sa invechesti/patezi/obosesti/mazgalesti si imaginea intr-o oarecare masura.

o zi frumoasa,
v

ciao Lili..
really hippie hair.. ;))
a so nice capture.. with lovely details and colours.. expression is fabolous.. wonderful indeed!! excellent!! thanks
ciao Marco
;) soon

Hi Lili ;)))
Great, great shot and title...I like it, TFS
Best wishes,
J ;)))

Buna Lili, e tare simpatic animalutul pletos. :-) Imi place mult cum l-ai prins, excelent portret, bine compus, culori faine, bun DOF.
Despre rama, este faina, dar eu cred ca merge mai bine la poze monocrome, ii ziceam si lui Vlad saptamana trecuta la o poza color cu o rama asemantoare, acelasi lucru.
Te pup,
Sorina

Revin

Hello, Lili -
When I saw this image and your title, my mind involuntarily flashed to "Shaggy", the hippy character in the old Scooby Doo cartoon (I hope you know what I'm talking about or I'll be quite embarrassed). Back to the photo - groovy capture! Warm, earthy colors and sharp details of the horns and thick, tangled hair. I like the new frame. Peace!
Sandy

Haha


E destul de inspaimantatoare cand o vezi asa cu "plete"!!!
Super incadrare si inramare!
Faina idee


Numai bine,
Sabina

Hi Liliana
very nice shot of this beautiful cow
well done
ciao
Lucio

And a bandanna and a joint :-).

Love the framing you did on this.

Hello Liliana.
Lovely looking picture of this real Highlander.
Are you sure She didn't wear sunglasses ?
When I blow some wind on her, think can see a glimb of it. haha
A real viking would have been proud to have this on his head.

Haha Lili, the one part of your notes about the sunglasses makes me smile She barely sees anything without ,how would she do with ones! llolol (love the workshops) .Lots of these cows up in Scotland, great fur details here, very sharp as usual Lili ,depth is shallow but right on the best part, the head. Sorry Lili but i am not that sure about the frame though..but this is only me,

All my best,
Carol

great pov on this hairy beast. Good details and love the border. He looks like he's trying to smile for the camera! TFS

Hi Lilih,
Thank you that you always made a workshop for my pictures. Could I make a request? Because I have no Photoshop, kindly put all of my pictures into a frame, like what you did in my Cotton Buds. Its up to you what color or whatever treatment you may add. I really appreciated it. That is only a request if you have a time coz I'm sure all of us are busy in this world of commercialism.
Thank you very much.
Dennis

Hello Liliana
This cow does no look very friendly but he photo is perfect. Nice hair color nd crisp detail of the fur. The crop is perfect and the low point of view was a good idea. I don't realy like that frame though.
Good work
Serge

Buna LILI ,
Aoleuuuuu dar cum l-ai gasit pe asta ? Fuga la frizer cu el, ce-si face de cap? Dar nu stiu cum ai avut curaj sa te apropii de "fiorosul" asta.
FELICITARI PENTRU CAPTURA si PASTE FERICIT !
Iulian

hi Liliana
good shot
wonderful composition
i like her horns, so sharp
and her hippy style hairs are too cool.
good shot

Hi Lili.
Lol, what a cool dude. I love the 'haircut' and expression.
Good sharpness and great low POV.
TFS
Wojciech

hihi, nice title. I like the low point of view. Image looks a bit tilted.

TFS,
Pedro


PS - Don't like the frame, but that is personal.

Hello Liliana,
I was browsing through your gallery and my eyes were immediately caught by this sight of your hippy cow. She's unbelievably sweet and I can't help smiling just looking at her.
Superb details of the cow and the colors are wonderful. The frame is nice too. Well done.

Best regards,
Sharina

Hello Lili,
Maybe those guys look a bit scary but I think they are kind animals like most cows!
A fine portrait with sharp details, well done on colour reproduction...
Greetings,
Pablo -

This is one adorable cow, as are her hippy friends :) Both are excellent pictures. This one looks sort of cuddly! TFS

Hi Liliana
A truly perfect capture.
Your POV is impeccable.

Hi Liliana, These cattle are certainly atractive beasts. The long fur and the huge horns are spectacular. Good close up crop. I bet you'd run if he stood up suddenly! Excellent work. TFS. Murray.

Interesting hair style:) This shot confirms the concepts of contented cows and green pastures. Good composition, POV, clarity, and light. I like the border treatment for this image. Well done!
