Basking in final sun...

EOS R RF 100-500 RF 2xtc @800 f13 1/1300 ISO 640 HH, Manual mode

Monsoons finally over, out for bike ride and saw this beauty basking in the late sun light. First outing with RF 2xtc which I ordered after many hours with RF 1.4xtc. Quite happy with both and saving pennies for RF prime super telephoto when it arrives in a year. With this slower zoom, and subsequent loss of light, the focus area is large box in middle of frame and AF is slower but still snappy even at f13. R6 , which I'm leaning towards, should handle this slower glass even better.

Thanks as always for valued comments and learnings please keep them coming.

Dude looks like a bowling pin. Nice lighting and direct stare, but the 2x is showing here. I think the whole image could use a bit more sharpening. Huge fan of the low angle though. My kinda frame.
