That is the most pathetic look I have ever seen on a cow!

Oh, my lord, this is hilarious! Great take on the challenge, like the slanted orientation of the cow.

HAHA!! I'm laughing at my ditzyness. I faved this on 8/15/06 and I'm JUST NOW understanding the title. SO FUNNY. I'm a little slow on the uptake, eh? :)

apparently we have creatures of the bovine persuasion in common as subjects of our photographs and crumbly foundations of old buildings as well!!..
this is an excellent cow/bovine shot ...... just love that expression and the title .....

WOW! Congratulations on your first top 20 and your High Score!!!
Really funny picture, love it how you made the cow bit tilted to add the feeling so that it looks a bit in the air.
Good focus, good colours and light.
Edited to say, not just top 20 but top 10%. That is a lot more!

love the title! its fits the look on the cows face perfectly!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Moo. Maybe it's a milking cow. Good perspective, shame about the cut off ear. I like cows and the eyes have good light so a reasonable score.

Wonderful pun and clever composition

Meets the challenge for sure. Great idea. Looks a litte over processed so there are some halos around the cow though.

I feel framing is distracting here.

Great detail, looks almost like a B&W.
Caption and entry so humourous and imaginative for this challenge!

Great expression you have captured here and some nice detail :o)

I'm sure you "stewed" about the title for a long time. I'm giving it an extra point on that alone so you shouldn't have a "beef" with me.
