Hereford Calf

 * Reason:Clear, well composed portrait style shot of a hereford calf prior to any marking, tagging, etc. Nice detail in key features of the animal. Compares well to currently featured animal 'portrait' shots.
 * Proposed caption:Hereford cattle (Bos taurus) are a widely used breed in temperate areas, mainly for beef production. Originally from Herefordshire, England, they are found in the temperate parts of Australia, the Southwestern US, Argentina, Uruguay and New Zealand. This image shows an unmarked hereford calf, the offspring of a cow and a bull.

 * Weak Support Edit 1, very sharp and detailed image. It's not as good for an encyclopaedia as it could be, though, because of the lack of DOF. The original is underexposed and dull, while edit 2 is overexposed. --Aqwis 15:08, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Question Edit 1 does wonders for saturation and warmth but I can't help feeling all versions are little tight-cropped at the bottom. Is this full-frame or could it be opened up a bit? --mikaultalk 18:20, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it's basically full frame. I have added two more alternatives that have more 'room'; I thought the original was probably the best, but others may prefer one of the alts. --jjron 23:37, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
