Bull and Happy Cows

Speed Stud Shot
My technique for this shot: On Saint Patrick’s Day, drive south on Interstate 27 between Amarillo and Lubbock, Texas.
Set the cruise control on your car at the speed limit of 75 miles per hour.
Look for anything to break the monotony of the journey, like a few happy cows and bull near the town of Happy,Texas.
With your right hand, pick up your camera, turn it on and set it to point and shoot mode.
Keep your left hand on your car’s steering wheel. After all, you are going 75 mph!
As you approach the cattle, compose your shot and snap once. Not the sharpest, but a nice action shot. Viola!
