I like pic 8 but one the wings cropped off. Nonetheless, nice series...what lens and combination tubes did you use?

I like #3. It would be better if the eyes of the DF were to be sharp.

Thanks Jet Lim for dropping by. My equipment is trusty Sigma 150, Tamron 1.4x TC. Sometimes I combined them with Ext Tubes (12/20/36mm).

Thanks jbma. The eyes looked less sharp because one of the wings was covering it. This posture was the most relaxed for the DF and I waited for it so that I could approach up-close.
