    It's not really "hollerin", just stretchin :). The eye is obscured by the protective membrane, hence the strange look. Captured with a tripod mounted Nikon D200,80-400mmVR at 400mm, f8, 1/1000th sec, ISO 400, auto exp mode +.67, spot meter mode. PP'ed in CS3, QM'ed and cloned a few distractions out, no crop. C&C welcome.

    Ah, an operetta. Nicely framed and sharp. Light a bit harsh. Good head and light angles. If you would like to create a non-weird version, you can grab the eye from a similar and import it.

    Like the pose Dan, but agree with Artie about the light. Too bad about the nictating membrane.
