Thank you for your suggestion Brenzef.
Although your alteration certainly does look more natural, I think it has lost some of the character of the image.
All the best,
Ed

Thank you for your kind comments Bob, I very much like your suggested alterations.
Although I am unlikely to be in the same situation, it would not have been possible to follow through with your positioning suggestion. The shot was taken via the roof hatch in my safari vehicle and those aren’t cattle, but rather considerably more dangerous Cape buffalo.
All the best,
Ed

"Accident" plays little role in seeing a potentially good shot and deciding to use a camera to capture it. And one has to begin by placing themselves in the situation where the image might present itself and with camera.
I played around with your shot a bit. First I rotated it so that the horizon and cloud bank were more level.
Then I cropped away some of the less interesting sky which I think creates even more of a feeling of depth (which I think is what makes this shot work).
Finally I tried to take some of the blue hue from the grass and make it closer to its natural color.
If you find your self in this situation again it might be interesting to see if you could get lower to the ground while shooting and let the cattle stand out against the sky.

Thank you for your comment Vanessa.
It was actually early afternoon when I took the shot and as I mentioned in the “about” section, certainly not captured through skill but rather by accident. But I have a few “accidental” shots that turned out pretty good.
All the best,
Ed
