Love it. That angle makes me think this was not taken with a telephoto, meaning you were pretty close up?

Thanks for the note, Chris. I'll look up the metadata tomorrow, but my best memory is that it probably was a Nikkor 80-200 f2.8 FX lens. We were in an open jeep just a wee bit closer than you'd feel perfectly safe with. Here's another shot for perspective:

For the record, it was a Nikon D200 camera and Nikkor 18-200 mm f/3.5-5.6 lens at a focal length of 170mm, ISO 100 for 1/60 of a second.
