F* Yes!! Finally!! Dragonflies!

[Judobreaker]

Ok, this might be done a lot of times before but I don't give a ...
There's been a war going on between dragonflies and me. I never seem to be able to get them to sit still long enough.
Today I finally got it done though!

1. Un-cropped

2. Cropped (not the same shot as nr. 1)

C&C always welcome. ^^

Nice! Excellent detail! Congrats! I have trouble getting them to sit still also. And we have not had very many this year... I was at the ponds yesterday, and there were NONE.

Very nice and great detail!

Nice details..

I find when I really want cooperative dragonflies that they sit still after I pick them out of the radiator grill on my truck.

I can see why you are excited about those, great captures!

Holy macro. Beautiful shot. It's amazing how complex a small insect is when seen up close.

Nice dragon.

Practice your ninja skills and you'll find you can get closer without spooking them.
