Thanks. Try using a longer lens....even your 70-200 might be good. I use my sigma 150 + 1.4x teleconverter (=210mm).

OMG! These are amazing! I love dragons and damsels...Growing up I used to tell everyone the dragonflies in my backyard were my pets because they would land on my hand almost everytime I went in the garden! Great job!
