    I have always wanted to try and get a good
    shot of a cow, and finally managed to get a
    half decent one

    The only problem was the amount of flies
    around the cows, I ended up getting bitten
    all over my legs trying to get this shot!

    This shot of the snail looked quite flat and boring
    when I downloaded it from my camera, but after
    1/2hr of tweeking in photoshop I ended up with
    the below image which is about 100% better

    Oh yes! I love the selective coloring on the snail - it makes it so interesting!

    Love that cow face. I once stood on the side of the road coaxing the cows to come near the fence just so I could get some shots like this!

    Thanks for all your comments

    I really enjoyed taking and tweeking these
    photo's and cant wait to get out and do
    some more

    I wont be able to get out with my camera
    now for a week or so as *fingerscrossed* I am moving
    house on 25th July, so everything is now all
    packed up. Just hope I can rememeber which
    box has my camera in
