Description
I spent an hour+ hanging over the the rail of the boardwalk on the pond at the Metropark trying to get a shot that had the whole dragonfly in the frame and in focus. They're fast, but a shutter set on "continuous" helps.

So THAT'S the trick...I can't get anything but a blur when I try it! This is amazing detail, beautiful shot!

Well done indeed, an excellent capture. I understand how pleased you are to finally get him as you wish! I too have spent many hours in this quest.

Excellent capture. I admire your perseverance and success, lol. I am amazed at midair shots of dragonflies. Even if my camera were fast enough to catch one on the fly, how the heck do you manage to get the correct focal distance, lol. This is a very common species in my area but I have not seen one perch on anything more than 2 or 3 times in four years of watching. I only have one pic of the species. Thanks for sharing, Lee
