A big fan ... and impressed with what you have achieved with that combo.

Very delicate image, Grahame!

I wonder how you put the No.3 closeup lens on the 150-600 (I don't know which version you used, but their filter threads are either 95mm or 105mm).

Thanks, Grahame, for the details.

I didn't realize that there is such a huge step-down ring!
