OK, so this is not a photography blog, but when I saw this, it struck me: I’ve never seen so many pictures of cows together in one place!
If that’s not enough, here’s another full wall.
I’ve never felt the need to hang a cow picture in my house. Call me crazy, it just never occurred to me. So, seeing so many different depictions of bovine beauty in the corner of a small shop was a little overwhelming.
It reminds me of the old days, working in TV news for a station in southwest Kansas in 1985. Those familiar with that area will know that cattle feedlots are big business down there, and because of that, we did a number of stories in the feedlots. So there we were, taking video in the middle of a feedlot, surrounded by 200 head of cattle, and each and every one of them was staring straight at us. That’s 400 big, dark, non-blinking eyeballs fixed on our every move.
It’s little wonder that I have no interest in pictures of cattle looking at you.
But if your barn needs a little cattle-esque decor, let me know. I know just the place.
