    nod.gif Just like they stagger the tires in NASCAR. But the cows can only walk one way on the hill.

    I assume your cows have no fear of heights... I told my 12 year old cousin 3 years ago that the sheep can stay on the hills because their front legs are shorter then the back legs. The kid believed me... :D

    Wuuuow! Gives me vertigo. Wonder if some clouds in the sky would have ruined the effect or not. Poor cows, their legs must ache.

    except the frame, no post. the rings in the sky are artifacts induced by the
    compression.

    If you look at the couple and then right, left of up (at the blue sky), you
    should see a halo like effect.

    But my "mountain" is really a cliff at Land's End in San Francisco where I
    think Andy's is in the foothills about 100mi away :D
