Critique Club feedback:

Who know that Expert Editing Free Studies would attract so many cows?

There is nothing negative to say about this shot, and I think the score it received reflects that. Perfect exposure, great lighting, the focus is dead on, and the bit of natural framing provided by the tree takes it over the top.

Very nice shot.

Do like this alot! Great the way both of them are looking out at you :)

Austrian cows are getting to be popular huh, lol

Well done!!

edit: just noticed the blue ribbon winnder is from Kufstein; must be the cows from your region are particularly photogenic :)

I really think this is a fantastically better photograph than the ribbon winner. I love the colour balance and the blurred background. I'd frame this puppy!

(grinning sheepishly) I have to agree... I really, really don't want to offend anyone, but even though the ribbon winner had nicer colors and textures, I almost think that this has better composition... :) Don't tell anyone though!

Who would have thought there'd two Austrian cow pictures in the one Challenge? There is something funky about the cows' feet on the grass, though... probably the alcohol working on it. ;-Þ

I like this it is a fun picture. I like the way the tree wraps the cows and your choice of lens to distort the faces.

Sorry but I always think that shot´s with fake lens blur don´t come out as well as the real thing, it´s not badly done but it just doesn´t have that same look as the real thing. Nice shot though, gave a 6.

Great colour and composition. Nice depth of field. Have you ever seen Glen Wexler's work ? If you like cows - have a look - you would love it.

Nice! They look like they are letting you know where you belong, but go a head and photograph! Well done.

Very strong exposure, sharpness and composition. Editing around the feet could use a little work.

Lol - I don't know what it is, but I really like cow photos when they're "looking at me." Great colors and lighting. Just a fun photo to look at! 10

Like the tones but the PP is far to obvious on the cows hooves which is very distracting.

YAY - I'm so loving the cows in this challenge. Excellent detail, focus and their expressions. LOL Thanks for the smile. 8
