I found this dragonfly in the yard while i was out feeding the Mosquitos yesterday. I think I might need a transfusion. I'm starting to feel dizzy from loss of blood.

You need one of those new OFF Clip-ons. I am going to try one, myself. Wow, Ed. This is an excellent close up of that dragon. The colors of the thing is fantastic, and so well focused too. My compliments.

Very nice close up on the dragonfly. Lovely wings! Those are some greedy buggers, you would think they got their belly's full already over here!

Off Clip On sounds like an Oxymoron to me Huck. Be careful I hear they are addictive. Great shot of the spider winged dragon. They are fun to try and photograph. You did well.

Aw Ed, take it from an experienced mosquito feeder - it will pass off soon - It isn't half as bad as a bite from one of those alligators that have been following you all the way along that forest path. Nice shot of the dragon fly! What you need is a drink not a blood transfusion!!

The intricate wing capture is so good Ed. I have those buzzers and sometime the sound of so many makes you feel like they could carry you off! Yuk! ♪ ♫ :)sandi♪ =^..^=

What a great capture...The detail is amazing and the colors are top notch. The only thing I can see is maybe a bit of noise reduction. Other than that, this is perfect. Well worth the patience and a keeper for sure.

I love the wings on this little fellow!! They look like lace. I have tried a few times to photograph these without much luck. You have done a fine job with this one. Thanks for sharing. Lyn.
