Parent and child Highland cattle in the warmth of the late afternoon winter sun. There were two adults and two calves and the parents were very protective of the youngsters, otherwise I may have climbed the fence to get the sun in a better position to snap them.
Highland Cattle were first imported into New Zealand in the 1970's from Scotland and Canada and the New Zealand Highland Cattle Society was formed in 1993. Here the creamy red colouring is more predominant than the brown or black. Canon 450D. Thanks for viewing and for any comments.
*The calves were for sale - my garden is not large enough though :)

Nothing wrong with rim lighting, Eve.Your shadow area exposure is just fine. Well handled.

They are so sweet. I love the looks on their faces. I wonder what kind of hoops you have to go through to bring a new breed of animal into the country.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.
If they take off their coats...would they be beefy?...lol
Caught at just the right moment

Even here the lighting looks good as they stand. Wonderful shot of the two sunbathing.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
Very well handled with the lighting, Lyn, there is a place not far from me that has these as well, but picture taking would be hard for me to do. Tigs♥ =^..^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
I agree you handled the light just right Lyn - really unusual cattle to my eye but then I was born in Wisconsin(the dairy state) so I'm used to seeing lots of Jersey cows for milking.

When I see those sharp horns, think you have taken a wise decision not to climb the fence, Lyn, the more as your image wouldn't have been better than it already is.

Try to change what you can't accept, but accept what you can't change. Please CLICK HERE to see my journal! Feel free to save my images or to add them to your favorites.
These are my favourite breeds of cow as I love there colour and coats. I think the lighting in this enhances these two quite well. Brilliant shot!
