The expression says it all really! This was taken late in the early evening as the sun was setting behind him. I decided to leave the camera flare as I didn't think it really detracted from the image in this case. Looking at this photo later actually made me a little sad to see just how miserable he looked. The emotion displayed by these "animals" is really quite incredible!

I think you have really captured the majesty of these creatures. Dispite his woeful look you can still feel the powerful strength that these creatures radiate. Apparently 98% of their brains are identical to ours!

I don't see sadness here...more like annoyance and 'can't a guy get some sleep?'...great capture.:Pat.
