Standing One's Ground

Posted by Organik Mum (Victoria, Australia) on 8 September 2007 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.

I contemplated straightening this photo, however, decided on leaving the lay of the ground as I saw it.

What a sky! Great simplicity in this shot - very strong subject (no bull!). Where are you?

I think the slanted horizon line lends a bit of edge to the composition - besides, the bull is more or less 'straight.' I like the tension you captured here - how close were you?

Excellent image. It has real presence to it. I don't think you need to straighten anything, as it appears to be natural as it is.

Nice cow shot. I say this as someone who sees a lot of cows and has taken quite a few photos of them myself.

I know the bull is what sells the shot (especially capturing the ominous straight-on angle on the face), but without the clouds in the background it wouldn't be the same. Amazing job of getting both elements.
