hi alan,
love that black splodgy nose, it looks like a drawn cow. i think personally this needs a 1/3 crop left and bottom. i find the cow in too much space, and the splodgy heather bottom is a bit distracting.

Hi Alan
Nice simple composition. As Paul points out, beast is one of the 'White Park' breeds - possibly originating from the Cadzow herd in Scotland, by its markings. Several herds of these lived wild in northern Britain until the 14th/15th centuries. They are thought to be decended from white, sacrificial cattle imported from Europe, during the Roman period, by the native brythonic/druidic religious traditions. Some suggest that they represented the first domestication of the European Aurochs.
