My nephew in Ireland.... He's always loved helping his dad on the farm. Now, he's got a few cattle of his own.

Thank you. Farming is changing in Ireland - around the world, I suppose. I hope he gets to pursue his passion.

No matter how automated farming becomes... there will always be a need for "good" farmers.

Love these shots. So cool. My Granddads cows weren't always so nice.

Nice shots. Our cattle would come up to my daughter like that if she got down low.

Excellent photography of your nephew. Looks really in his element surrounded by dairy cattle and they seem very comfortable with him. I'm the first generation off the farm, coming from a family with many, many gens of farmers and it can be a very good life, not an easy life with lots of work and responsibility, but it looks to me that the young lad is more than up to the task.
