The Lazy Longhorn


 

BetterPhoto.com Editor's Pick  
The Lazy Longhorn
The Lazy Longhorn

As the temperature here in Texas heats up the Longhorns become a little less active.... *They do the jumping over the moon trick when it is not so hot :-)

Canon 100-400L IS at 370mm. ISO 100, Mid-Afternoon, 1/320 @ f8.0, EC -1/3

  Wonderful capture, love the look of these longhorns, well done. It would be nice if you could capture one jumping over the moon for us, it would be a great action shot, lol...

  They sure live up to their name! Great capture. The moon is supposed to be at its largest tonight -- maybe it will cool enough for them to jump by then!

  Those sure are long horns! Great perspective and portrait of this willing subject. Bet tonight's moon is too big to jump over. ;)

  No fools, those longhorns, when it gets way too hot for moon jumping, Jeff. :) The breadth of these horns always surprises me. I love the echo of the star of the image there behind.

  Great shot Jeff of the Longhorn but I think the size of his horns might get in the way of him jumping over the moon, LOL.

  Playing catch-up today. I've been gone for a few days photographing parts of southeastern Oregon.
From the look of those horns, it's a good thing he's lazy! Excellent capture with outstanding detail, color and comp, Jeff! Very beautifully done!
