“Madonna and child – one of the most endearing images of all time! Great photo!”
Madonna and child is not exactly the first thing that came to my head when I submitted a photo via Twitter to myphotography mentorRick McNary . His response made my mind race a lilliputian piece more as to what he was talking about with the pic of my moo-cow and her calf .
Rick is an awe-inspiring photographer whom I connected with at a Farm Bureau group discussion .
I attended his seance at the group discussion hope to gain some skills and motivation to become a good photographer . He teach me touse images to severalise my story .
Madonna?
When I first thought of Madonna , I imagine ofher . I love Madonna ’s music , but she has n’t exactly been roll in the hay for her nurturing parenting skills allot to social media reports .
However , after googling “ Madonna and Child Art , ” I pick up just what Rick was talking about .
I discovered many dissimilar painting of Madonna and her child dating back to the Renaissance period . Madonna is another name for Mary the female parent of Jesus .
The famous catamount Raphael was one of the creators of Madonna and her child . contain out his creationHERE .
There may be many different style and themes of Madonna and her child , but one thing is for sealed .
Madonna was a very nurturing and hump female parent who held and cuddled her child . She adored her nestling .
Much like my moo-cow Madonna and her sura .
Madonna and Her Calf
This moo-cow is one we affectionately call # 38 . I will be renaming her “ Madonna ” from here on out .
My married man will love it .
Madonna the moo-cow is a replacement heifer we maintain a twain of class ago . This is her second calfskin .
Matt and I had been keep our center on Madonna and watching for signs of labor . We know the atmospheric condition was becoming cold , so we desire to be ready in case she were to have troubles with her labor .
One day, we couldn’t find her.
After hiking out to our pond dam about a quarter of a mile off from the rest of the herd , she was found with her new-sprung sura . The temperature that day was mid-30 degree Fahrenheit .
Madonna had her calf up , dry out off and was nursing it with fresh ardent foremilk .
Then, She Saw Us
She became nervous and watched us intently . Her calfskin was unphased by her reaction and proceed to research the new stale world .
I tried to creep nearer with the television camera . I wanted the best shot possible of her and the new-sprung sura .
But , they did n’t go far . It was gloam and Madonna had institute a nice warm spot out of the wind behind a enceinte brush passel .
They stayed away from the herd for a match of days . Just the two of them . Bonding like a female parent and baby should .
I was concerned for her alimentation . I asked Matt if we should take some hay to her .
He said , “ No , she ’ll do back when she is quick . ”
He was right . A few days later , they rejoined the herd where she consume hay , protein tub and piddle .
All the while , she was keeping a watchful heart on her new-sprung calf .
They are doing great despite the frigidness . She is a natural nurturer and keep her calf warm and full of bracing milk .
