So, frequent viewer but never contributed in wildlife forum. Something about the pose and eye contact in this that struck me. Terrible light, consumer zoom, but oh well. Sadly, all I can think about now is a fast 300 prime, maybe 400... Anyone want to try to help convincing my wife?

Very nicely done Michael. You will have to deal with a very heavy lens if you do convince you wife. This may change the way you carry and support your setup.

A marvelous shot be it captive or wild...I'm not sure how to convice your wife but you obviously have some talent....you could try bribery if all else fails.

Thanks to everyone. Can't take much credit, he (she?) did all the important work... Funny thing was, I did not see the expression until later on the computer.

This kinda tells more about the photographer's abilities IMO. You don't need fancy equipment to take pictures with impact and emotion, you need to see it and realize it and that is what the equipment CAN'T do!
Some of my favorite and best images have been taken with my least expensive lenses!

You got a great shot Michael, crop is a bit centered for me and maybe you could burn in a bit of that lighter area yet to finish this one off........

I like it
Karl
