There's a Constable painting entitled "Wivenhoe Park" that has cows and a pond. They're on the same side of the pond as the cow in the foreground of "_8308296_large". Same kind of black & white cows. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
