Taken in a field next to our property. I walked around a bit to let them get used to me being there and then I sat down. This one was very curious and kept getting closer. Soon I was on my back in order to get in range for a shot. Unusual experience.

Excellent shot, this is the sort of image I would've liked to have taken for this challenge. 'My' cows were too timid of me.
