Coming to get me.....

I must be mad getting on the floor so close to this gorgeous Highland Cattle. I suppose the camera makes me feel braver than if I didn't have one. I remember that he/she was so close that I touched the horns. What a stupid thing to do! They do seem to be gentle giants though. I've been away for a while as I have been getting my new online shop up and going. I am selling 5 x 7" blank photo greeting cards and digital downloads of my images for purchasers to have printed or print themselves. I'm still stocking the shop but you may want to have a peek... etsy.com then search for PhotoArtByChantal

You've captured all the character of these wonderful beasts which makes for an easy Fav... but I wish that you hadn't cut the tips of its horns off.

[Shepherdman's Wife]

@bob65 I have no idea 🙁 I guess I need to look into that. Thanks for that comment as it hadn’t occurred to me.

This is wonderful. What an amazing creature.

[Pam Knowler]

Great capture and one I know I would never be able to get! I am too scared to even get in a field of cows - you hear so many stories about them.

[Milanie]

I do hope they are as gentle as you were hoping - what an amazing shot! That pov is fantastic - Glad he was not terribly curious about that camera! Good luck at your new enterprise - with your skills, it should be a winner.

[Rosie Kerr]

Excellent POV.

[Shari]

Fabulous POV. Great shot.

[Teriyaki]

I am impressed, I once for got 60mm on a crop sensor away from a rhino at (filling the frame), and was quite nervous, I can only imagine being this close to the cow @ 35mm on a full frame.

[KoalaGardens🐨]

Great detailed capture, I had a quick look at your shop, looking good, but I guess they use Machine translations because the Dutch translations are a bit of a mess.

[Kerri Michaels]
