    Ahhh.....!!! Very nice!

    Love the shallow DoF and the dead on focus on the eyes.

    Beautiful shot! Just like what Marie said -- the eyes are the dead giveaway here...

    Geico commercial look alike. If you are not familiar with this advert (yes! I watch them funny ones all the time!...) here is one link:

    This is one of the prime examples of why I always carry my 85mm macro lens with me. I've gotten cool shots like this as well and without that lens it would be impossible for me. Nicely done!

    excellent dof. it really accentuates the detailed textures on it's head, esp. around the eye.

    All the stacking in the world wouldn't do any better justice than the photo you have here, great job.
    Also, I initially misread your title as Dragons Of Eden, a great book by Carl Sagan. Which caused me to go look for it and re-read it. For that also, thank you!
