I wanted to get some photos of these cows acting naturally, but as soon as I stopped me bike, they came over hoping I would feed them. This one kept smelling the air, and was all around being goofy.
I don't expect this to do super well, hopefully it stays out of the gutter.
Post processing included rotating/cropping, increasing brightness, increasing local contrast, using a layer with soft light to darken the over exposed sky and lighten the eye, and then a good amount of sharpening (some local to the eye, some on the entire photo).

Good shot! Nice color and even lighting. Just for observation purposes there seems to be a lot of chromatic aberation at the sky line... there is a large cyan line around the trees and at the horizon. Probably could have been fixed during post processing but it is not really detrimental to the image.
