| How about "bovines" & "equines" as a coordinating pair for open challenges? It'll be a tad tougher for city folk, but definitely not out of reach. |

| Seeing the constant complaints about the number of similar subject matter in certain challenges (eg. flowers) I can't imagine many being thrilled about having to vote a challenge where EVERY shot is a cow... |

I bet there would be several flower shots in the cow challenge with some sort of cow pun for the title. |

But these wide open challenges don't always compare how people would do comparatively with a very similar subject. Challenges like these force people to think a lot more creatively to distinguish their photo and without all the ridiculous shoehorns. |

ooo.... ooo...
From Wikipedia:
Fine modern bows used to play orchestral string instruments of the violin family (the violin, viola, cello and double bass) are usually made of pernambuco wood from Brazil and are strung with horsehair

Probably... after all he is incredibly well versed.... Which is why I couldn't resist pointing out this little factoid.
