Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.
Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.
Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Wonderful! Lovely light, colour, and character 
I especially like the way 147 is straining to get into the shot in the first  *** When getting there is half the fun! ***

My 5 year old tells me you can tell when they're "racing cows" cos they've got numbers... so obviously these are racing cows.

You have captured some wonderful images in this set. I love the first one, but how on earth did you get them to snuggle up for the picture?

I think that they found me as facinating as I found them, as they just kept on coming closer and closer...I ended up deciding it was probably wiser to take the rest of the photos from the other side of the fence.

"147, your meals are ready..."
I have a soft spot for cows as well, Bindii - but they can get a bit pushy sometimes and have no respect for expensive equipment! Your decision to give them a bit of space was proably a good one.
Terrific images and that low moody sky just adds to the atmosphere.
Good work!

Bindi,
Great colour, delightfully sharp, and the first two are very nicely composed as well. g.

Ha, that is so cute. I love the different texture in fur on the top of their heads. Once again, good job with the photos, very sharp!
