my neighbour... it's the only cow he owns. milking her is a daily 20 minutes-job. i thought this would fit perfectly in the challenge. hope u'll like it...

I like this alot, the emotion that eminates from this picture is outstanding, so much can be read from the mans espression and posessiob, blank and white works nicely! Nice Shot!
amazing shot... country life :) A farmer milking his cow... the age of the man and the look on his face reveal a life of hard work, which is common in rural life. Everyone works hard... pulls his own weight... provides for his family.. and smiles while doing it :) I have had the opportunity to visit environments like this one in the past... this photo makes me remember the scent of the places... the mood... the sounds... Kudos on a beautiful photo... = 10
nice shoot.. =) some recommendations: the top is very distracting.. it would be nice to see more detail in his face, etc.. than the walls or windows of the room.
Composition: The windows at the top detract a little, otherwise spot on for me.
Technical: Nice focus & colour. Good capturing of the mood.
Meets challenge: Yes.
Overall impression: Good, but those windows really focus the eye.
