Wish I could say I tracked this guy through miles of sage brush, swamp, and snow fields, but he was in a tree in my back yard today.
Canon 1DMKiii, Canon 400 f5.6, 1.4 TC, Hand held.
1/400, f8, ISO 800, Aperture priority, spot meter, 0 compensation, moderate light through overcast sky.
My calcualted DOF is about 2 cm, so, next time, maybe I should use a flash or a tripod to allow me to stop down a bit as the tail is quite soft.
Applied a bit of gaussian blur to the background in PS as there were many distracting branches. Increased the saturation and lightened the eye a bit.
Thank you for looking and comments.
