Shooter's Comments:

I was shooting Abby Pranger hose down her cow when her friend Caitlin Taylor hit her with a stream of water. They didn't really go at each other full force, but I got a nice reaction shot of Taylor getting hit. I started out using my 80-200mm lens for this shot, then switched to a wider-angle lens, but that didn't work out too well. The hardest part here was getting a good view of the calf in the image.
