There is something about Cows that make good pictures. Maybe it’s because they stand so still. I’ve photographed this tree before in this pasture, and always thought how nice it would be if there was a cow standing right where you see him in this image. We get plenty of fog in Northern California and you can usually tell its going to be a foggy morning if the evening is damp. So, I got up and got out to my spot expecting to photograph just the tree with the prairie grass but was pleasantly surprised when my cow walked right into frame and stood still for a full minute while I blasted away. This has happened to me often. I will say, “Gee it’s a great picture but it would be awesome if an Eagle came and perched right there in that tree.” Low and behold an Eagle came and perched in the tree. Or, “…wouldn’t it be great to see a big ol bear come down that stream with a salmon in his mouth?” Just then out of the brush comes my bear. I think these types of “coincidences” happen more often than not just for the fact that, “…yes that Osprey thinks this lake is full of trout too…” Maybe the coincidence is me getting my ass out of bed on a cold foggy morning and standing in a field waiting for that cow that comes by every day?
