You don´t need to excuse yourself CSB, everybody has a right to express there opinion.

I used gradient tool to get right colors under the photo. I honestly don´t think that i have broken any rules by doing that. I don´t see gradient tool underlay as an artwork, i see Mona Lisa as an artwork :)

If this border bugs people then i hope that after this challenge site council will make some clear rules what is legal when you create border. The rules today are little bit extensive.

One is for sure, i will NEVER use border again :)

Again, please forgive me if I'm wrong here... simply provoking thought on rule interpretation, because obviously my definitions and understanding don't appear to be the same as others.

Yep, this is almost what I wanted for extraordinary. But I wanted the cow to stick his tounge out. Searched for more then an hour to find my first cow, but he was to far away, my 2nd cow did not want to come to the fence, the third run away so I send in something completly different.

OK about your picture: I like it, I will give it a 9 for now, maybe converting it to 10 later when I am done "skimming"

Why?

Colors are very good, the viewpoint is great very good use of DOF and it are pretty cows!

fantastic perspective and a great shot. Lovely colours and tones. Very refreshing to see after a generally bad show. Gets a 9 (would be 10 but not level, not a criticism just my personal preference)

I don´t see that my border is anything of above. The photo is inside the white line, the rest is just border.
