Thanks, Eric. This wasn't posed. They kept moving towards me and I shot a bunch of frames while crouched. This particular one happened when they hesitated just a bit as they got close to me.

[Eric Myrvaagnes]

They obviously didn't really pose for you, Rajan, but what I meant was that you caught the moment perfectly when both cows and the farmer were in just the right positions.
Great timing!

Well composed, Rajan. Just as well you didn't harm them: I read that the penalty in one state for killing a cow is about to rise to life in prison.

Thank you, gentlemen.

[Telecaster]

Love it! One of the best uses of a wider lens I've seen recently too.

What he said. One way or another, it's about knowing how to work with your models, no?

Looks the ox(?) on left is very hesitant with you around Rajan. What a wonderful composition. I note the driver has his own space and is not touching either ox.

Thanks, all.

John - I took a lot of frames until I got a couple that worked. Had to keep moving backwards on the curb as they advanced.

Great moment, great shot!

I like the way you captured the subjects, and I think black and white works well.
