Ha Ruud,

Nice fresh shot. It looks like a PS assembley. When he was so close the picture should be so sharp because you must have been shaking in your shoes!
The leg are longer then the snow is deep.

Just for fun I made a WS.

All the best,
Hendrik

Hi Ruud, what an impressive cow, your photo is really nice, I love the tracks how they disappear way far in the back, that beef cow certainly is an impressive beast , how friendly are they .Interesting note.The workshop is funny also.

Hi Ruud,

Fantastic composition! The colour of the beef cow is so vivid and it's so sharp that I can see every detail of its head and body. Great POV and DOF. Wonderful serene place.
Excellent work!
Very well done!

Hi Ruud

I like the superb color contrast between the red haired Scottish Highlander bovine & the cooler blues of the sky & snow. Excellent perspective & pov. Tfs.

Wow! "Une rencontre du troisième type!" I like much contrast chaud/froid between the fur of the cow and the whiteness of snow. The POV is very quite selected with the perspective but it was to be dangerous! Courageous photographer, the animal's horns are so near to him ! Thank's for sharing. Annie

Hi Ruud,
this is phantastic - I love this Highlander-cows so much, they look so friendly.
I have seen the first ones several years ago in Scotland - and the next ones a few kilometers away from my home. The farmer was running behind this escaping cow - we had great fun while watching ;-)
Thanks for sharing

Heel mooi en toch een beetje bedreigend
Van zo'n dier zou ik meer afstand houden!

Oef; die staat daar geweldig; poten verzonken en afgemarcheerd langs het lange pad.
Prachtig bruin afgtekend tegen natuurlijk wit.
Misschien had ik 'm nog meer naar links gezet om die halve hoorn te vermijden.
Groet

Hoi Ruud,
ziet er goed uit. Het beest is er mooi scherp en goed belicht op gekomen. Laatst kwam ik deze in het zwart tegen. Ik had er een beetje moeite mee om die er goed belicht op te krijgen. Je durfde er nog best dicht bij te komen.

Gr,
Pedro

Ik kijk hier met zeer veel bewondering naar. Mag ik dit specimen aan mijn koe-thema toevoegen ?

Prachtige foto en heldere kleuren. Ik hou van deze koeien. Bang hoef je niet voor ze te zijn. Koeien zijn van nature nieuwsgierig. Willem

Hi Ruud. Magnificent close up of this red cow. The clarity is superb. Interesting note. Please post more of this breed one day. Murray.
