i'll bet it is. you isolated the cow very effectively. i'd be curious to know how you did this, exactly. anyhow. it works for the shot, and the subject is well placed in the frame.
The photo does not tell me very much on it's own and the title is a poor attempt at saving the photo. Also, just about every area is overexposed leaving nothing but a big brown blob of a cow in the photo. This could definitely be improved using better composition and exposure.
Too much adjustment here for my taste. Keeping the cow in a natural state would have appealed more to me. As it is now the white on the cow blends too much into the background and leaves the animal looking too surreal.
I like your humor and I'm sure it's a human interest story. Don't like the colorization you did. It doesn't work for this one. Real grass looks good here. Beside you lost his back knee and the other back leg is purple at the bottom, with a blue stomach and part of his back is missing. You ruined a good shot. Sorry PTL3
This is a very interesting shot :) I like the high key approach and the cow has a unique appearance with the white band around it. The post processing here has created a strange 'blue' tint on the underside of the cow that looks slightly strange... I think that a b/w conversion on this particular shot may be an overall improvement... good shot :) - Please help us enhance this site that we all enjoy by commenting on photos each week.
