 This is one of the many painted cows scattered about Madison a few years ago. This particular one was purchased by my company, and put in a field to the west of our campus. On this day, it was gloomy and rainy all day. When I noticed the cow's color on such a gloomy day, I knew it would be perfect for this challenge.

In RAW, I cropped slightly, increased brightness, changed WB, decreased contrast and shadows, increased highlights and color saturation, moved color tone towards Red to make sure the flamingos were pink, and increased sharpness.
