 Had this idea for the picture when i saw the challenge title, it was however very difficult to find cow out and about, most are in sheds out of the cold.

Image was cropped, shadow & highlighted and a few bit cloned out to clean it up.

Thank you everyone for the positive comments.
Yes she very nearly slimed my lens

Thanks to everyone for the nice comments.
She just missed the lens, when a second later she stuck her very long tongue out :-)

Great capture!

A bit more 'punch' from increased contrast would have bosted the score. I think this would also look reall good as a B&W version.
