Hello Jerzy,

Funny photo. Excellent colors, focus and composition. I realy like your use of wide angle.

Excellent work!

A really 'in your face' shot Jerzy, I think it's great!
The bright punchy colours and strong light suit the feel of the shot and give it more impact, as if it needed any more impact with that cow slobbering in your face. You must have been close with that wide lens, and I imagine you spent the next half hour wiping cow drool off your camera!
I think it would have been even better if you's shifted the framing to the left slightly, so as to include the head of the second cow and to cut down on the empty space on the right, but even so it's a good shot.

Cheers,
Ben

Superb & vibrant - I love the way the historic city just fades into the background.

Witaj Jerzy!

To jest znakomite. Wprawdzie obawiałbym się nieco o szkiełko ( w końcu 3tys piechotą nie chodzi) ale zwierzak był chyba przyjaźnie nastawiony. Bardzo zabawnie to wyszło. Znakomicie ostry pierwszy plan ( żeby nie napisać "pysk") świetnie rozmytwe tło.

Bardzo mi się podoba

Pozdrawiam
Jacek

Hola Jerzy,
Interesante punto de vista para mirar a una vaca. Divertida y fresca. Menos mal que no saca la lengua.
Buen trabajo.
Mirari.
