Unbelieveable! What lens did you use to capture this shot? This big ol' guy looks absolutely stunning - somewhat of an, "I'm gentle, and I'm watching you, and if you cross a line, I can kill you," kind of look.

I was using the 70-200 f2.8 IS with a Digital Rebel. We were able to get with 20 feet in some cases.
The settings were 200mm f4.5 for 1/400th of a second with ISO 400.

Wonderful shot. Love how you captured the subtle catchlight in his eyes! Excellent exposure over all!
