Who says you need to see the eyes to have a good animal photo?! This has impact and really captures my attention. Wonderful colors and details. I love the fly on the nose.

Excellent image Bart- good to see you posting again. :)

I think that this is outstanding. The composition and the light focused on the open mouth make this different and very effective
