A second posting on my HAIR shots.

Bad hair day, by Feeder:

Yes, the lyrics are rather limited :-). Feeder is a Welsh rock band who formed in Newport, South Wales in 1992.
To date they have twenty-three UK top 75 singles, and seven top 75 albums. Nice to see them perform live!!

Photograph note:
Taken at a nature reserve South of Eindhoven, East of Valkenswaard, called Valkenhorst. Wild cows (Scottish Highlanders) have been set free in this area. Impressive animals, with a lot of HAIR. Taken at the long end of my 80-400mm VR lense. 400mm at 1/45 sec, handheld!

Hi Dennis,
Funny shot, like the way the cow looks back. I'm not so happy with the DOF, I see you used f/5.6 on the shuttertime is your limit. The blurred rear of the cow and the FG are a bit disturbing in my opinion. What ASA did you used? (BTW 1/45 with 400mm? Did you used a tripod?) Anyway it's a funny picture, but the quality can be improved I think.

Hoi Dennis
Mooie opname van deze kolos.
Gezicht (kop) mooi scherp gehouden.
Groet.
Aloys

Hi Dennis,
I like this shot. It could be sharper IMO, but still a very good and a funny shot.

Zelfportrait? ;)
Grappig shot, maar zoals Hans daar zegt... DOF is niet echt correct naar mijn mening. Ik had graag zijn kont ook scherp gezien. Wel fijne kleuren op het beest.
Groetjes
David

Aha .... oke ..... dus er zit ook nog een voorkant aan zo'n geval !
Erg goede opname. Ik ben blij met het oogcontact ! ;-) Goede kleuren en scherpte.
groeten,
Joop!

Dennis .. we read here diffrent opnions.. each makes sense .. often it is a matter of : What do you think yourself..do YOU like it..
I would have posted this one too..focal length 400 .. yes we have not all sharp with f5.6.. but why should you.. the focus on head is ok!
Yes... I like your Highlander :-)
