The stucco wall makes the image, as you elude to, get some dimension. Very subtle yet highly effective.

I like the subject, and the light in this shot. The toning brings out the light in the tall grass heads nicely. This is a good example of taking an ordinary rural scene up to the next level with your processing skills.

I hope there was a fence between you and this critter.

Well done treatment.

Just a suggestion: While he shows off nicely in this center pose, I do wonder if he would also look good off to one side, perhaps in the lower right third of the image. There's room in the composition, I think.

The shadows of the landscape are repeated on the cow's side, which I would never notice in color. Interesting.

Comment by Jedusi:
Such lovely eyes : )

Background is a little bit cluttered because of the various strong lines which are a bit of a tension for me against the natural softness and innocence of the girl.

There is almost a dynamic going on between the dark of her eyes picking up the dark reflection in the door, and the white of her top picking up the white in the background . .

Hmm . . I don't know - but I do know that she's a great little model delightful with those enourmous eyes of hers and tousled hair . . .
