I assume from the title that the animals are in some sort of shelter and viewing the photographer out in the rain ... what these silly humans do with those shiney boxes that flash light at one?
I prefer this image to the other which is 'posed' while this is 'candid'.

I like both versions of the cattle. This one for me has more dramatic sense than of Marina. Maybe because they are humanised - bowed heads and expression.

Photography by Marina Cano is good, but not the only one. Many photographers have that same scene, probably before her. But the important thing here is not who has the first photo. What matters is whether the picture makes sense. Obviously the image of Marina makes sense, but another image such as this also has something special:

The important thing is to be there at a time of rain, or hail, take a telephoto lens and compose the image well. And then every photographer gives his style editing. Fortunately you can make different pictures of the same things.
Thank you all for your comments and excuse my bad English.....

Thanks, Jose for presenting one more example on the same theme by Miguel. I must say that his cattle resemble humanised expression. They look a bit unhappy, thus a bit angry and bitter. This is what makes it special, for me.

"The important thing is to be there at a time of rain, or hail, take a telephoto lens and compose the image well."

But is it incorrect, Jose, to assume that the original image has been digitally altered to a substantial degree? For instance, I don't know how else to account for the horn in the upper left portion of the picture that does not appear to be attached to an animal's head.

Maravillosa, Jose, puedes sentir el calor de las bestias mientras se refugian de la lluvia y el frio,  en silencio. Gran photo para un museo. 

Bravo!  Mari
