Well done! Your focus, framing, and lighting are all very good. I am especially happy to see this guy grazing from grass because there used to be a dairy farm near our house and they lived mostly knee high in their own manure, sad I know. Luckily that dairy farm shut down, which I am happy about. You captured this guy perfectly. I thank you for sharing this with us :)

I just love the back end pose with the slight turn of his head and amazing horns.
Focus is sharp, colors true and natural and exposure Controlled. My only suggestion is next time be aware of the animals eye. If you don't get the catch light naturally..edit it in..and lighten eye.
Nice find and Capture

Comment from Jomo


What a great animal to capture. It's a shame the eye and nose are slightly out of focus. It may be possible to sharpen in an editor. Great moment. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Dick Lee Shia


A fantabulous sharply focused
Still motion shot!

Amazingly, the longest horns for a bull I've ever seen!
This could have been a runaway winner for the From Behind Contest!

Dramatic interplay between soft highlights & faint shadows.

Perfect framing!
Nice perspective & narrow DOF.

Congratulations!

Thanks for sharing...

Oh beautiful bovine. Oh the magnificence of your horns, which protrude into the imagination of all of us. Your colors, God enriched, cause us to stop and gaze upon your strength and glory. Wonderful photo.

This is an excellent entry for the competition and will really be a great contender in my opinion. Your perspective is remarkable and the clarity and detail in this photo is amazing.
I love the beauty in its horns and face and the title is just Fantastic. So well done! Wish I had another six for this one, it's really artistic as well. Best wishes in the competition.
