I spent some time again today with this little feller. I have many shots now of him with many different angles. I was looking for something that breaks the "normal" poses of this guy. I feel this one does.

This is just Killer, Jody! I love the angle, pose, and intense stare. The bg is killer too!

Ouch, this is killing me! Just a superb image, not much else I can say.

The only thing I would ask for is a little more wing parallel to the frame on the left side, like there is on the right. I only point on this nit because I really just wish it was mine :)

[Glenn Bartley]

Very impressive. He must be getting fat by now.
