A Fun Capture

This was a fun image that I took at a wildlife park outside of Sedona, Arizona in the spring. You have to have patience shooting wildlife because often you don't get that really exciting moment or reaction unless you wait and strike at the right time.

There were some Ostrich roaming and I was watching them. I took several shots, all what I would call the typical. Then suddenly something startled this one and he reacted with mouth wide open and piercing screech. That was the shot I wanted. The one I was waiting for. I locked the focus on the eye and snapped. It is tack sharp and the small depth of field gives a little blur to the background accentuating the subject. Simple you say, yes, but I love it still. A fun capture. Let me know what you think.

I hope you like it.
