You got a poem - congrats on both that and a fine image!

Do they ever do ku klux klan sheep? I hope not. Whatever... this is one of my top picks.

Interesting low key display of bovine choreography. It's so distinct that it's a new presentation to me. The front five backs are almost a living fence, a palisade, enabling the other three to dance free of bounds. I don't really know what to make of it, as if meaning has to be teased out of an image to make it legitimate, so I'm content to accept and enjoy it on its very own terms.

This is almost too dark for my sight to make out what anything is, but then again, I think that is how Ubique likes it.
If it wasn't for the whites, I would not be able to vote on this image.

This is the excellent picture I didn't expect. There are a couple of images here which are either rather conventionally good (and still very good, convention doesn't necessitate a change in judgment), but this is just refreshing!

Spectacular almost-symmetry, and the perspective is wonderful; I'd be curious as to how you made the image.

My number one, with a few peers, but my first choice nevertheless. Well done.

Pointless existence from their perspective. No joy.

The sliver of fence tells me that this is where the grass is always greener and a feeding frenzy is on; or it could be just a watering hole and no more room for those left behind. Imagination is a good thing.

This is how light should be used. This is a great example of how a photograph should be framed.

Love the processing and nice choice to leave out the heads of the animals in front.

Cow croups are well portrayed here...wish to lighten this image though.

oh dark cows feeding upon darkness, what is the milk of your efforts? and who dares to drink of it?

one night I saw cows grazing upon stars
and I thought what strange motion
will make those stars visible again?
because we tend to think like Aristotle
that heavenly bodies are fixed, permanent in motion or permanently still,
immune to the forces that pull an apple from a tree
and wither it away, but now we know,
now we know,
the stars are tears of God,
glimmering then gone.

Some uniqueness (tried to type ubiqueness but spell checker chose another word) going on here. Dark, mysterious and a wonderful entry.

Superbly composed and edited.

love the tones. I can see here across between two great Ubique's photos, zebras and a horseback

Night of the bovine! I like how we are communing with them. Excellent tones too.

I like how you aren't afraid of the shadows.

This reminds me of something striped. Big kick out of the unconventional crop, and the brutal vignette is ... brutal (always happy to see gratuitous brutality, photographically speaking). Thank you.
