Grazing/ Sky Watch

Grazing among the daisies at sunset

It doesn't look like it, but these cattle are actually wending their way back to the barn, taking a few minutes to eat some evening snacks.

Perfect Sky Watch. I like B Squared's comment. So true the lollygaggers. MB

Leora said...

The sky looks fake, almost like you went into Photoshop, posterized some clouds and increased their hues. But I know otherwise! Lovely, the cows, too.

Leora,

I agree that the sky looks fake. :) But really, this is what the sky was like the night I took the photo.

Oh, your comment came just when I started to write comment to you.
Thank you for your comment!

But your sky is special - the colour is incredible perhaps those animals want enjoy being outside also because of the atmosphere of the evening ;)

I love this picture. It is so peaceful. The way all animals should be able to live. The colour of the sinking sun and the pasture in the shadow the imminent night is softly approaching.

Frabjous sunset~! Lucky cows -- looks like they have plenty to snack on.

Kerry said...

Love this picture, but not just because of the sky. I like watching the cows mosey off into the distance, and the fact that they leave the daisies, which must not taste very good.

George said...

I just love this picture. I spent many an evening when I was growing up waiting for the cattle to finish nibbling and get to the barn.
