In the artist’s own words: "This was one of the coolest moments in Scotland. Warm evening backlighting, on two of the Highlanders who were very interested in what I was doing with my camera. Highland cattle are a rustic breed of cow originated in the Scottish highlands. Bred to be hardy, with a shaggy coat to withstand the intemperate weather conditions."
