Evaluate My Photo

A bit of editing done, maybe even too much- but it's hard for me to tell.

Nice! i love this kinda shot. Too much vignette though.

That's what I was wondering... I personally love vignette, but whereas I like to add it, I notice many people try to get rid of it. Is there a general consensus as to whether or not its desirable? Or just a matter of taste? I'm relative new to photography (and sort of self-taught) so any criticism is VERY much appreciated. Thanks!

I like it but yes, shame about the vignetting. I too am no big fan of it. I think I would also straighten the picture.

better?

Nice, shot, up close and personal with a COW!! This Cow has got some long nose hairs. It would be an even better shot if two of her girlfriends weren't not laying around on there butts in the pics.

I like the way you got the feet in. The wall and the mouth being in an unbroken line is a little distracting too.

When I was in Varanasi my young daughter...about 7 at the time took one look at the forgaging cows and said in a loud voice. "Why are they so cruel to the cows here..if they cannotfeed them they should shoot them." It was one of the most potentially dangerous situations in my life.

Very nice shot and no doubt the moment didn't allow you to compose every element. As the nose closeup (I almost had the urge to wipe my monitor) followed by the eyes lead us right where you want us I agree that the vignetting should go. Great shot.
