That is an awesome picture!
I'd have been steppin' back a few yards after seeing that.
I sat down to rest and get a drink on a downed tree and leaned my shotgun on that tree. When my mind finally grasped what I was looking at (Yes, it was that big) I snatched up the shotgun and ran around in circles for awhile screaming. Then we decided to shoot it... and I was reminded of that scene from The Usual Suspects where they ask Verbal why he didn't shoot when he had the chance.
I took the shot, but did not go investigate. We used to call that area 'Groundhog alley' but now we do not speak of it ever again.
Everyone believes that I zoomed in to take the picture. The thing is... the iphone has no zoom, and there was NO FUCKING WAY I was sticking my hand near that thing.
