This is nice enough. Could have done without the skilift as it mars my idea of looking at wilderness. Are dropshadows legal? (just curious). 5 Journey

Cows in Reno

Comment by CLarson557:
I like the clouds, the mountains and the cityscape in the background. However, the cows seem a little too far away. Since the challenge is fauna, I think that the focus should have primarily been them, in my opinion. In this case, if you would have been able to get a little closer to them, it would have been better. The lighting is a little dark and the cows are blurry.

First let me get a criticism out of the way and say I am not keen on this style of border AT ALL.

Apart from this I like this picture - it's a lovely landscape shot and the theme is there to see. Maybe it could have done with being a little closer to the subject though.

Mooo! I would have prefered more of a close up, but I guess they would have run away if you'd gone any closer right? A zoom might have helped here.

picture lacks interest.
are the cows the subject? if yes, they should be closer/larger.
I don't know why you used clouds in the picture or why you used Reno in the title. The challenge is fauna
