 So many cute calves at the dairy. This little one stood out for me as I wanted to shoot one with more of a white face.

Oh, how sweet! I'm a sucker for cute cuddly critters and this one looks just as soft as can be.

It's a very, very nice photo: focus, crop and composition. To me, the contrast is a little flat. It's a very cute calf that I was originally scoring at 6. I think I'll bump it to 8.

Love the softness of this and the harsh reality implied by the ear tags and what look to be tear stains.

The detail here is great. That look is the one that made me stop eating meat.

Absolutely gorgeous calf. It looks so incredibly sad. Its speckled nose is beyond adorable and the softness around its mouth are so strokable. Its hair is soft too, which really makes you feel maternal towards it..... he/she looks so sad and so cute that I just wanted to hug him/her!

I hope he/she has a happy life.... and is walking around chewing the cud for a long, long time to come.

An excellent shot.
