Perfect title for a perfect image, Jeff. Especially impressed with the clarity at 8000 ISO. Sadly that is a weakness in my camera. #1543423

Thanks, everyone! We're pretty close to this guy, but on a bridge, looking down to him. This cropped to 8x10, using the full width of the image. #10836622

Very nice image Jeff! You captured a portrait of a moose as well as any I have seen.

Tell us a bit about the light that required the settings shown. Was it early morning or late evening and is this the fixed f2.8 Canon telephoto you used? I am so jealous as I really want that lens but cannot afford it.

Very cool! Where were you? Love the water dripping off his mouth! #10837287

Great shot Jeff!! He looks a little wary of you. :) I like that you can see the detail really well, down to the water dripping from his mouth. #10837523

Thanks, everyone!

This was taken last weekend in the Tetons. It at just before 7 pm, and the sun had already dropped well behind the Tetons, so the light was fading fast. The ISO performance of the 5D Mk III combined with the fixed 400mm f/2.8L IS II lens did an amazing job, allowing me to capture this shot in really tough conditions.

Here's another shot of the same guy from about 2 pm, in the same area. #10837758
