Wasn't sure where livestock was posted but I don't think this California Longhorn is a pet.

Good photo. I think a fill flash would have helped but then you might have had an angry longhorn. ;);)

The warm light is lovely and the detail is excellent! That's quite the set of horns he's got!

Great looking animal.

May I just offer that the background is the only thing that bothers me. Sometimes background takes away from the subject.

Thanks for the comments. There wasn't much I could do with the background as I had limited access to get this pose.

Thanks. That was one of the limiting factors for getting the shot was the fact that I had to shoot through the horizontal/vertical bars of the fence he was behind. I took the photo using my new Sony a7r + Canon 70-200 f4 IS @ 185mm.
