  1. I'm glad you did upload it, I see several macro shots, but few as close to the subject as yours. Really quite interesting. Posted 11 years ago, modified 11 years ago
  2. I think so too, I did get a very good perspective shot from under his wing looking at his face, but it wasnt focused very well :(
