impressive capture ..
i guessed he was yawning ..
i take shots of our little katee, the dog, yawning a lot ..
i reckon its pretty funny ..
and when she yawns she does it differently all the time and pulls weird faces ..
anyway ... i particularly like this shot coz you really nailed the focus ..
you could almost present this pic to students studying the teeth of animals .. i dont actually know wot this animal is .. but is does look ferocious .. the nails & his feet are pretty amazing .. they look almost birdlike ...:)

| Hahahaha. That possum looks terrifying. Granted, I think they are always sorta creepy, but that pose makes it even more menacing. Great timing. The focus, composition, and exposure are all great on this shot. Great job! |

| LOL, I thought he was yawning, but since I have no idea what this is, I wasn't sure. Great focus and detail! |

| Is that a yawn or is that a 'i'm going to tear you limb from limb?' look? Very cool shot! |

| Wonderful shot - tooth and nail! Can't read the expression, but I am fascinated by the hands/forepaws. |

| I'm guessing he is yawning, they are usually asleep at this time of day. These animals get a bad rap and are actually very resourceful and adaptive animals. Great shot! |

What a great shot of a possum - you can tell it's sharp enough when you can count the fillings in his teeth :- )
It would be interesting to see this with the background taken out or at least as dark as you can, I think it would make it an even stronger shot. |

I need to get in a better habit of putting in details of the shot :-)
I used the D200 with the 70-300 VR Nikkor lens.
It was taken at a special session for visitors at the Denver Zoo. It was the first time I've ever seen a possum. |
