Description

Hello Everyone, I made this shot today and decided to share it with you. It took really a lot of tries to catch because the dragonfly has been very agile! :D This capture was made with a Nikon D50 + Sigma 70-300mm DG APO at 300mm (450mm). Manual focus! Aperture priority, F/5.6, 1/250s, ISO 200, ... Full view for full details! I dedicate this one to Lady Wailua - I guess she knows why... :D Thanks for viewings and comments! Have a great weekend!

This would have been and outstanding capture if the dragon fly was sitting still. Being that the dragon fly was on the move its truely a stunning capture.

erstmal gaaaaaaaanz lange ehrfürchtig auf's Bild guck und nicht mehr wage zu atmen :-) Hah !! YES !!! Du hast's gepackt !! Aber sowas von !! ;-) Gratulation zu diesem wirklich einmalig gut gelungenen Meisterschuss ! Ich kann aus leidiger eigener Erfahrung nachvollziehen, wie schwer das ist und wieviel Geduld und Konzentration das erfordert. Dafür hast Du Dir soviel Schulterklopfen verdient, dass Du hinterher nicht mehr gerade stehen würdest ... ;-) Und - ja, von der letzten Mahlzeit bis zu den Härchen - ich seh's ! Sehr lieben Dank für die Dedication ! :) This is a REAL SMASH !! Fantastic image ! I take my hat off to you !
