That is so cute. I also thought about using that same font as it seems perfect for Texas.

I love cows. These are cool cows. These are bored cows. Composition excellent and the text perfectly balances the entire thing. Should have scored much better. DPCers don't appreciate cows. :(

GREAT! I'm guessing this is one of Judy's cows. They're adorable - sooo bored by the photographer. Check out the look they're giving you :) I really like the crop and the toning. I might like the text to be a bit more predominate, but appreciate the way it doesn't overwhelm the image as it is. This is one of my favorites so far.

Very cute. :) Could stand a little bolder text so that it was easier to read in the grass but the photo itself is great.
