Back Scratch

[Enlarge to see the light in the cobwebs on the tree.]

 

This lovely young cow had an itchy back, and simply had to scratch it. It sits in the light at that very moment when the sun emerged from behind the mountains and struck us with a golden glow. But for me the highlight in this picture (the "punctum" as Roland Barthes would have called it), is the way the light catching the cobwebs in the tree matches the way it also catches the wire in the fence which runs down the left side of the picture.
