Wow, amazing color. Is that close to what you saw or have you adjusted? His face is so small compared to the rest of him.

That is his color. I cut the background out (the back wall of the resturant was visible) and sharpened the image.
His head is quite small for his body. His body was about 7 feet long.
Here is a shot when he was out feeding.

Cool. The color is amazing.


Bless the recently fallen and their family and friends.
I have a Cannon with me at all times. You can't take the shot if you don't have something with which to shoot. :rolleyes:

I used the Canon 17-85mm EFS lens.
I had the XT on a monopod and the ISO was 1600.
Next time I am going to try using a flash.
I am going back to this resturant in a couple of months (I will be in the area) and see what I can get with these guys.
