Challenge: Bovine (Advanced Editing VII*)
Camera: Canon EOS-5D Mark II
Lens: Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM
Location: Killorglin, Ireland
Date: Jun 24, 2010
Aperture: f/9
ISO: 400
Shutter: 1/800
Galleries: Humorous, Animals
Date Uploaded: Jun 27, 2010

Taken in Killorglin, Ireland.

RAW processed in Bibble 5. Small crop, noise reduction in CS4, then some adjustment layers to fix levels on sign and on the cow. Saturation stuff, and a little cloning to get rid of some annoying stuff on the edge of the sign. Resized and sharpened selectively.

I kept it slightly less-than-straight (vertically) on purpose... Seemed like it helped the humor of it.

Slow elk? Nice humorous catch. The composition works to get across the humor.
