Silly Cows

Firstly thank you everyone who helped me get on the PP with yesterdays photo.

This evening I went back to the same fields with the dogs to get my "Olympic Opening Ceremony" picture of cows in a field. Unfortunately the cows had different ideas about this and blocked my way. Have you ever tried holding two dogs on leads and a camera, while trying to get around six cows and a huge dung pile, while the dogs try and eat it? It's not easy I can tell you...
for sure! but at least you manage to take some pic and IΒ΄m sure you enjoyed this moment ;)

Sounds like a sitcom episode. Actually some of the anitcs I've read about here would definitely be sitcom material. 365- the sitcom. I can see it now... Cow picture, opening credits, music... Nice shot!

Ha! Well done on getting to the PPage :)
I walked a friend's dog the other day and nearly lost my fingers when I realised she was eating horse dung and I tried to retrieve it!!
Great shot - typical England so perfect for your quest :)

Congrats on the PP page. To answer your question... I have to say.. NOPE!

Pretty field, and even if they were uncooperative, not bad cows, either!

Yuck! At least neither Lancer or Cara are particularly licky dogs, 'cos that's disgusting.

Been there done that. Minus the dung. ha ha! Great composition! That one cow seems very interested in you and the dogs.

I like the natural lines of the landscape and the lighting. This is a very nice picture.

I can honestly admit that no, I have never tried that choreography. No intention to try, either. ;-p
