I dressed my younger son in overalls and a red plaid shirt for the shot, but he just wouldn't cooperate. This was a desperate plan B. Cropped to eliminate a large, distracting hook on the side of the cow. Very little editing- USM, slight HSL and Curves adjustments.

The red of the model's costume pops!. Great that it is in the shadowed area. Overall - this is an image I really want to love...but the competition with the trees at the top and the planter at the bottom right reduces the impact. Go back and do it again! The "cow's" head is a bit over-exposed.
