Couldn’t resist taking a photo of it. I like the way it looks towards an iMac as if asking it for help.

Believe me, in Switzerland every cow has a bell, and they know how to use it too. The sound carries for miles.

Taken in the nearby hills. These things are responsible for waking us up in the middle of the night with the sound of their cow bells.

Just check the exposure of this one. Silhouette of the cow against totally blown sky and yet, the foreground details are visible. A masterpiece if you ask me.
