Cows

From Photo of the day (2009)

I am now getting hay from the loft above the cow feed alley and I saw this while fetching feed for the goats. After I looked at it in the camera, I found I really liked the shadows of the cows heads and the head lockers on the floor. Once on the computer though, the original was too... glaring, if I had brought a polarizing filter up with me I would have used it. I did use a fill flash but it was simply too far away to do much good. When I transferred it into a green filtered black and white in Picasa it seemed to take away some of that glare. I also increased the fill light and sharpened it.
