Eye Reflected!

    Another dual remote flash shot....

    I can't recall what species this is, and when I checked the nationalzoo.si.edu/Animals/ReptilesAmphibians/Exhibit/Pro... site I still couldn't figure it out.... :( If you know the species, please let me know..

    D200, Tamron 18-200mm w/ 12mm extension tube and dual SB-800 via wireless trigger.

    Updated; btw I blogged some about flash photography, and posted a bunch of recent shots in which I used flash (posted from my flickr stream):

      You're producing some stellar work with that dual flash rig - and this is one of your best. I'm not sure what this is, but it looks like a type of gavial or caiman from the narrowness of the mouth...

      Oh wait - I just realized that you figured it out. Well, I guess I was right about the caiman...
