Description


I had a good week with Dragonflies. I got some nice photos of old standbys and a few new species I have seen before but never got a shot of. The 200mm lens has been very useful. It gives me some stand off distance and with a 20mm extension tube, it still lets me fill the screen with the bigger Dragonflies. This is a Twelve Spotted Skimmer (count the dark spots). There are more species on the way. Thanks to those who take the time to comment. Lee

Gosh, this is wonderful. You have brought dragonflies to the forefront for me. I found one that I captured this weekend that I had not seen before, but then, I never really looked until you started posting your incredible line-up. I have no idea what it was but it wasn't the black and clear ones I generally see. phenominal shot.

great shot, very nice compo.. normally I would mention that the focus seems to be slightly off the eyes, but actually the wings are far more interesting here and where you've chosen works just perfectly for me ;)
