My first challenge entered as a member :o) I know this will not do well, might get the brown ribbon, but I was so excited about becoming a member today that I had to run out and find something to shoot and this was all I ran across. I did get a few good macro's of the cows face's and a few other nice shots... so it was a good day :)

This looks a little over sharpened to me. I think this would look better if you made it the full 640 pixels wide and did not use up so much of the area with the border.
