Saw this little bugger earlier. First time shooting Macro, and it was windy, keeping him in focus at all was a complete PITA

Red panda chewing on some leaves. Shot yesterday as part of my first experience of awesomeness with a crazy 1260mm equivalent - D300 + 1.4TC + 600mm f/4 VR. I'm still drooling
Thanks. TBH, it's not as good as I wanted, but those leaves behind him were litterally just foot or so behind him. That's at f/5.6 with the 1.4TC on.
I'm still going through the shots. Not many are *that* good tbh, but considering some of them were at less than 1/100s for a 1250mm 35mm equivalent, I guess I can't complain Also we were only supporting it on a monopod so there's a limit to stability and fluidity... I'd love to have a lens like that and a full gimbal setup to hang it off, but it's a bit beyond my budget
Here's another of a peacock chick basking in the early evening sun
D300 + 1.4TC + 600mm @ ISO200 f/5.6 1/250s
