Description

Nikon 7900 pocket camera. It seems forever since I actually saw a live Dragonfly although in reality it has only been a little more than a month. This shot was taken in June when it was warm, lol. Thanks to those who find the time to comment. For those interested in the house construction project, I can only say "progress is being made" but it will be several months at a minimum before I can expect to see the end of this stage and months after that before I will see the end of the entire project. I started the original foundation dirt work about 15 years ago. Finances and back problems have taken turns in slowing the process but neither have stopped it, lol. Lee

Nice to see a post from yourself Lee,, I know just where you are coming from with the health/back issue. I was in hospital last Monday for several injections in my spine to help with my pain management, I feel great now, but it doesn't last long. Nice to hear the project is progressing, even though it is small progress, better than standing still. I can't wait for a picture of the finished work. Excellent capture and presentation of this wonderful Widow Skimmer. It won't be long before they are back buzzing around your homestead. Bravo!!!!!

What did u do to this photo, Lee, to make it look as special as it does? something was done... it's so subtle, which is what grabs me ... I love this so much!
