Adjusted color saturation, brightness contrast, despeckled, resized and added border, also cloned out a small tag in the cows ear.Also used Neatimage to take out some of the noise in the sky.
I think this is one of the best pictures I have taken since joining DPC so I am very anxious to see how it does in this challenge.

Someone else from Nebraska? Good composition. I might have cropped a little tighter to remove the tree branches on the right and a bit of the grass on the bottom. Nice job.
nice soft feel. My only comment is the tree on the right. I think that I'd like to either see it more in the frame or not at all. Just a thought. Nice work.
Nice composition. There doesn't seem to be a good spot of focus though. The corn and cow are both kind of soft for my taste. It is hard to get interesting landscapes when everything is so brown at this time of year - but this is pretty good. = 5
