Milton Keynes is a planned 'new town' and its concrete cows - a sculpture by artist Liz Leyh, installed in 1978 - are the butt of many jokes in the UK.

God, haven't seen these things in years - they must be pretty old now? Like the shot - DOF especially. Text doesn't read too well - I guess that's a function of the resolution of the upload more than the curly script. And what else is there to shoot in MK?
This says to me "backyard." Not "my town." The perspective is cool - but the flowers are a bit too blurred out and your focus is on the grass in the center, not on any of the cows. I'd try a longer DoF and focus on the 3 cows on the right.
A wonder to behold for sure! YOur image really makes me want to go and see this remarkable landmark. Nice point of view so close to the grass, and the focus is great.
I have to give you high marks, just for living in Milton Keynes (there has to be some compensation!)
A good entry, though I'd have liked to have seen the foreground flowers a bit more in focus and the dark shadow on the middle left seems out of place (I'm assuming its from something out of the frame to the left.
Concrete cows I can't help but to snicker. The picture looks good I like the angle I like the depth of field. The text seems a bit out of place in that color, something a little more mild might have been a bit more itting. Overall well done! these are the finest looking concrete cows I've ever seen photographed
