Mission Impossible, a photo from Parana, South

Photographer's Note

Poor little calf, trying to lick herself at a impossible part! His tongue is too short, or he has not the enough flexibility. It doesn愒 matter how many times he would try it... he never will lick it!
Its a impossible mission, like ourselves trying to change this site to that old one. We will not have our beloved site again. Just it.

This is a capture from the vast fields of "Campos Gerais" a very good region to livestock in the second plateau of Paran� State, where the Red Angus is becoming more and more commom. This one is maybe 50% angus.

Hope you like it, and please forgive this little joke about TE. I still don愒 like this site as I loved it before.. but here I am, as a beta user, when possible.

I扉e just posted another picture in the workshop area, showing the cow in the next minute.

Regards,
Zeca

Bonjour Jose
Une jolie composition pleine de fraicheur. Avec la meilleure volont� du monde je crois qu'il ne va pas y arriver. Tu as saisi un joli moment.
Merci pour cette belle image et bon week-end.

Hi Jose,
A very funny picture and a very good photo! One of the best "cow pictures" here on TE!
Kind regards
Gunnar

trekks (14348) 2009-06-05 23:13

hi Jose

:) Very nice score, I think from the way the animal is shaped and from observation of dogs, it can be reached by sitting down and raising up one hind leg.

A nice clean shot of the cow on the grass green. Makes a fine image.

tfs, bill

Ol� Zeca
Hehe! A pertinent title for this funny image ;)
The light is great and gave attractive colors/contrast.
Have a nice week-end
Marilyn
P.S I am using the new version, because soon or late the old one will disappear ):(

Na realidade, s緌 duas miss髊s imposs癉eis. Nem a vaca nem n鏀 conseguiremos atingir os nossos objectivos.
Entretanto, sejamos felizes por poder admirar estas belas fotografias da vida comum dos animais. � uma bela imagem.

Hello Jose,
You captured this photo with perfect timing, very nice composition, pretty little cow.

Hi jose, yeah sometimes it is difficult to reach where we want to reach! I like the way you have managed to capture the moment

Ola Jose
ouch, not that easy as it seems, funny scene under a pleasant light on her warm tones, good off centered framing.
Have a nice day JY

Hi Zeca,
haha, what a nice shot! There couldn愒 be a better one to show the impossible mission to change TE back. I totally agree with you, I liked it better the way it was before, but they won愒 change it back...
Anyway, a very nice shot, you captured it perfectly, I like it a lot!

jwmunro (286) 2009-06-06 8:40

Hello Jose -

Yes, some times animals can be humorous. Great capture and presentation.

Thank you for sharing.

You've brought a smile to my face this morning. Excellent lighting and colors and very good timing. TFS

BelCan75 (2201) 2009-06-06 11:59

Hello Jose,

This photo is so funny and what a good title you have chosen for this one! This photo has wonderful light, beautiful colours and good details. It's amazing how you were able to capture this calf in such a position. Great work!

Greetings,
Ann

Quase completa, Zeca. S� faltou alguma coisa caindo; U-)

Ol� Zeca,
beleza de foto essa, acho que n緌 ter緌 intelig瘽cia pra sacar essa, e de qualquer forma uma cena c獽ica. Legal tamb幦 a do WS.
Parab幯s e Abra蔞

Emile (20352) 2009-06-07 20:29

Hola Zeca.
Funny picture to see the cow trying something that is impossible. Good follow up in your WS.
You still can use the "old" version of TE in beta.trekearth.com, everything you do there will appear in this "new" version and whatever you write here, a critique or upload a photo will appear there, I think they are planning to keep the beta version for sometime.
TFS.
Best regards and wish you a nice week ahead.

wgreis (8267) 2009-06-08 6:35

Isso mesmo Zeca,
tarefa nada f塶il (e horr癉el!!!).
Valei ainda mais pelo fant嫳tico "decisive moment".
Grande abra蔞,
Wagner.

AiresSantos (56155) 2009-06-08 6:40

Ola Zeca
Bem gira esta situacao. As cores estao magnificas e o contraste excelente.
Magnifica a baixa profundidade de campo
Um abraco e boa semana
Aires

bona (15051) 2009-06-08 10:18

Perfeita essa foto Zeca, n緌 apenas pelo contexto da postagem, mas pelo momento em si. Muito divertida e bem executada.
Vida no campo sempre tem dessas cosas n緌 �?
Bom trabalho
Andre

celmaleite (5010) 2009-06-09 9:01

Que vitelinha mais charmosa! A pose est� 鏒ima! Gostei da imagem. Parab幯s, abra蔞

belido (19934) 2009-06-09 16:06

Ol� Zeca,

cara, esse site parece um vel鏎io. Legal deixar sua contribui誽o (final?) por aqui. S� mostrando a lingua, mesmo. Bela imagem!
Abra蔞,
Carlos
PS: a procura de um lugar aconchegante...

Flavia (10352) 2009-06-21 5:34

Oi Zeca,

Otima! Um momento muito engradado deste bezerro capturado com maestria. O fundo verde e a composicao estao perfeitas otimo DOF tb.

Abracos,

Flavia

nivaldo (15417) 2009-07-15 15:49

Verdade, Zeca, o site mudou para pior. Tornou-se , inclusive, mais mon鏒ono para acess�-lo, nos detalhes.
O t癃ulo, a foto, o flagrante est緌 "impag嫛eis" ! Ainda bem, j� que o meu humor n緌 est� dos melhores hoje!
N緌 desista. Assim o TE ficar� ainda mais chato!
Um abra蔞 e um at� breve,
Nivaldo

leonorkuhn (16237) 2009-07-15 19:19

Ol� Zeca,

V� agora o coment嫫io do Nivaldo, n緌 tinha ainda visto esta sua foto. Realmente a foto est� c獽ica, um belo flagrante campestre. � uma pena n緌 contarmos com a sua ass獮ua presen蓷, voc� nos faz muita falta.

Abra蔞s, amigo
Leonor

JEPC (1305) 2009-07-24 16:24

Ol� Zeca,
A vaquinha vai ficar louca!
Voc� pegou o "momento descisivo". A afli誽o do bicho chega a ser engra蓷da!

Abra蔞s,
JEPC

jaywalker (16105) 2009-07-27 15:20

Hi Jose, A great photo with wonderful DOF, the timing is excellent as the calf looks as though it's poking it's tongue out at the lens, a really super shot, TFS, kind regards Wilson.
PS perfect title.
