In this case, the reflection of the corral and the late afternoon sun and sky in the eyes of this Black Angus bull, staring at me from the confines of his covered pen.
The sheer size of these animals, seen up close, can be very intimidating. And while at first glance the image feels like it is in B&W, the color in the eye gives it away. It’s just that he is very, very black, and the sheen of his coat gives an almost tactile sense of his hide.
My 70-200mm lens gets us as close as needed, and enables the shallow depth of field, focused on that big eye.
