Darn it. I cannot view the EXIF information. Do you mind posting that? Also what lens? I am curious how close you were.

Thanks everyone for the kind comments. I was using a 40D and 500 at about 30 feet.

What a portrait! I really wanted to get one of these last year but didn't have the chance. Maybe this year will be my year! I'd be extremely happy if I could get a shot as good as this one.

Good work as everyone above has said. I also really like the eyes in this shot. Excellent detail overall.
