Holy cow! Another classic of dutch landscape painting heritage. Simple and solid. Congrats.

That, imo, is a real fine image. Brilliant

nice picture,

great sky, sharpness of the cow is nice and crisp, conversion to b&w is brilliant.

the only thing i would have done different is placing the cow a bit more to the left.
i'm no fan of subjects in the middle of the picture. ( just a matter of taste )

i need to fire up my gx 200 again, this picture proves how good that thing still is.

Good work. I do like the symmetric placement of the cow in the middle of the photo. However, I think the photo is a bit to contrasty, I would like to see some more details in the cow.

Nice portrait...
In this instance, I like the central position of the subject...and the vignetting helps keep the eye where it should be. Nice!

Wonderful image, though my eye, too, keeps trying to 'pull' the cow to the left........without success! :lol:

Classic. I like it in the center. Its a bit of a rule breaker but seems to work.
For me I'd have to see it offside to be convinced.
