Hi from the Alli Farm

[Fabs Forns]

Scouting this afternoon for the workshop that starts tomorrow, this cooperative Cattle posed for us. Shame he has an established nest, because the breeding colors are gone. That makes him very tame, though, lots of preening and just there guarding the home from intruders plenty. Back-lit, in the shade, with sun in the BG and captured through a bush. (Observers think I'm certifiable :))

Model: Canon EOS-1D Mark IV
Lens (mm): 400
ISO: 800
Aperture: 5.6
Shutter: 1/1250
Program: Manual
Contrast kept to a minimum as part of the look.

Comments very much appreciated.

I love the composition and the softness of the out of focus foliage. Excellent photograph!

Hi Fabs, I applaud your creative vision and willingness to share it with us. I have become so obsessed with getting a clear view of my subjects that this type of creative capture had not occurred to me. I find the mood that you created with the soft of green veil to be quite pleasing. Thanks for opening my eyes.

Simply beautiful. You've nailed this color wash thing. Does lend a dreamy feel to it. Thx for sharing.
