Perfect. Superb moment on hitting the shutter.
I've been at these, this close, and I can say is this is an amazing feat to capture one like this.
5,000HP unleashing in a blink of an eye has a way of affecting your body in a way nothing on the planet can. I can only describe it as all bodily sensations cease for a moment, as you cannot hear anything, feel anything, even momentarily stopping breathing, as the roar reaches in and grabs hold of your soul, temporarily suspending your body of all senses.

Marvelous capture!
