This guy try to catch Tits while I was photographing them.
It was so close to me, that I coudn't take a full body picture of him, and didnĀ“t have much time to take off the teleconvertor.
So I try to do a portrait of this beauty. What do you think?

Canon 7D II, 300mm f4 IS + 1.4x, f6.3, ISO 800, 1/160, manual expose, tripod and hide, a touch of flash.

Best reagrds,
paulo anjo

It worked out well.

I think I would crop differently, esp. some off the top, and possibly also off the bottom and right.
