skb 0 Posted September 10, 2007 First of all very interesting subject! Very good composition and I like the "pyramid" structure of the men in the foreground, but I'm wondering if it would be even better with a less distracting background. I used 'blur' tool in PS quickly to show what I mean. What do you think? Link to comment
western lifestyle photogra 0 Posted September 11, 2007 Hi Staale....Thanks for your idea, but the mother cow in the background watching her heifer be branded is an integral part of the action. Also the "hoodlum" (with ball cap on) known as the cook's helper has the job of ear marking this heifer with his butt right to the mother cow that may charge at any time in this situation. The "hoodlum" is low man on the cow outfit so he gets the worst jobs. This situation is a perfect example of that. Being I live on my own cow outfit I've seen this situation many times. I've also been on the receiving end of a MAD mother cow. It ain't fun! Link to comment
skb 0 Posted September 13, 2007 I see what you mean, the mother cow seems pretty distressed:) I've never witnessed this in real life (cows keep a low profile in London) so I guess our viewpoints differ a little, but thanks for sharing your experience, and I hope there were no lasting effects from being the recieving end:) Again, I really like your photo!
