 I haven't participated in a challenge here in ages and ages. But I went to the zoo today, so I checked to see if any challenges would fit.

Hope this meets the challenge well enough. I have several more zoomed in pictures, and images that are sharper than this one. But this one is far more interesting. I tried cropping even tighter, but it needs the extra space for the composition.

This was taken during the sea lion show at the Zoo. I didn't even intend to go to the show. I just showed up to take pictures and suddenly a zoo keeper started talking. It was very lucky, because all of my best pictures came from the show.

I think this would have been even cooler cropped in closer to the hand and mouth. Nice shot!
