Took me a while before I realised what it is - a whole row of cows munching - looks great in B&W

lol ive never seen so many cows.... exellent photo. Nice perspective, and i like the shade of the sky.

The perspective is great indeed..... I like the idea and the shooting angle is very good.

very nice shot. like it! It transports perfectly the image of so many cows...

Interesting title. You can either think "Mmm, hay" or "Mmm, hamburgers".

Interesting. I never knew cows raced the track.

i thougth this was a race track at first. then i looked closer and noticed they were cows. man that would be one slow race.

looks like there are getting ready for a cow race!!! aaand there're off.

like houser and frisky, when i saw the thumb in your feed i thought it was a race track! it's nice of the farmers to provide some shade for a pleasurable dining experience! what, no candles?

it's amazing how far the line goes. nice job accentuating that with perspective.

Very nice perspective and I like the angle you took this shot. Feel closer to the cows. There were easily over hundred of cows. They sure make a lot of noise. :P

The birds in front of the cows makes the photo even more interesting.

Ha! This time you used +2/3 exposure bias. ;)

Hmm... unlike the last few commenters, I did not think that this was a race track! :-) I love the lines in this pic - very nicely done. A different kind of cattle feed lot than what the average is around here.

Hey, in my book ya can't go wrong with a shot full cows!

The black and white really makes the photo look like something from the early twenties... although farmers did not have that kind of technology in the early twenties... it still looks aged... I like it... You, know we have tons of cows in SD... you should come up and take pictures sometime

I agree with Nik; it does sort of look like a scene from the early 20th Century. BTW, I think two of the cows spotted you taking their picture. ;)

This is nice. It took me a bit to figure out the cows - but that's probably just city girl eyes not used to seeing cows :) It's quite the juxtaposition between the city / farms in Phoenix - I've seen it myself, several times while visiting there, and I always thought it was sad.

I think the B&W is nice. Sepia tones would have worked well too, IMHO. I can't imagine shooting in that blinding sun down in AZ . . . it hurts my eyes just thinking about it.

At first I thought this was some sort of funny looking hedge. . .then I saw the cows. haha

I like it, Ryan.

Mooh yah! I like this one alot. I think it would be better if you cropped the bottom a bit more.

As the image loaded, the LAST thing I was expecting to be under those tarps was a million cow heads! Quite a shock! :)

I like this because it's something I've never seen before and the concept of "cows as far as the eye can see" is crazy.

With b/w it almost looks like they're eating dirt or sand, but I think it looks good as is. :)

i like it. everyone's pretty much said everything before me, i just wanted to let you know i like it a lot. i'd like to see it in color, if you ever have the time.

I remember the 'farms' when I was a kid...I was a foster kid in Southern California. I remember traveling in a mobile home to Florence to visit another foster brother that had just moved there. I remember traveling from Mesa to Phoenix through farming communities...I even remember the Fiesta Mall when it was first built on farming land. Interesting how things change...

It's really an odd looking subject, kind of a Pink Floyd album sleeve...A great composition, much better in B/W.

great shot, I like the perspective and the tones, especially the tone of the tarp with the light coming through it.
