This is really just breathtaking, Marie! So rich in color and detail and what a capture. His expression, body language and lip-smacking tongue all say he's getting have you for breakfast....and not as a guest! #107866Joy Brown March 17, 2004

Marie promised him a big juicy steak! This is really remarkable, Marie! #429343Darren K. Fisher March 17, 2004
Outstanding Marie. I hope he is not licking his lips for you. Well you know what I mean. #429421Marie Fields March 18, 2004
Thanks, Cindy, Bonnie, and Darren for the great comments!Bonnie, how did you know?? I had a huge steak strapped to my tripod! LOL
Actually, I have been known to talk to these guys but haven't resorted to empty promises yet!
Darren, yes I do know what you mean and I have to say that since I was the only one there it was a little uncomfortable - that look I was getting for a moment! Sometimes that ravine doesn't seem all that wide!
Thanks again,
Marie #429600

Wow, quite the fan club you've got! As everyone has already noted, excellent photo! The colours are amazing and the eye contact!...sends shivers done the spine. You do a fabulous job with the fences! At the best of times I get at least some distortion from them...what's your secret? #434899Marie Fields March 19, 2004
Thanks so much Eric for the wonderful compliment! In this case, I can't take any credit for getting past the fence obstacle - as this exhibit isn't fenced. There is just a deep ravineDavid L. Stevens April 04, 2004
