Something a little different. Depth of field was the main challenge here. As for the obvious safety issue rent a van with a sliding door you can open and shoot from.

Nikon D500S, 600mm with 1.4X, 1/8th @ f19, ISO 400, Cable release
Cropped 10% for final composition.

This is a fantastic image. The detail and the texture are excellent. I am amazed that the animal was so motionless for a 1/8th of a second shot.

Cool image! I love the composition and the texture in the fur. I would darken the upper left to stop the eye from being pulled up there and out of the image.

I can not quite find you in the mirror like reflection of his eye! Detail looks great.
