The eye contact is nice. The low angle looks good. Wish you could have got the tail in full. Thanks for sharing.

Nice eye contact. Would have been good to use the 1.4x here and go closer as the partially cut tail takes a bit of image appeal.
Thanks for sharing.

The light was low. So with 1.4x TC it would have been 1/50 shutter speed at ISO 400. I wont be comfortable with such a shutter speed, as these guys often make fast movements. So a higher ISO would be beneficial in such a situation. Selecting an outer AF point or focus & recompose would have helped in getting the tail, but it would have been tight.

Thanks for sharing.
