Dragon Fly

great shot dawn :o)) i see them occasionally but never land in my garden

Good shot. I think that this is the Ruddy Darter.

Wow Dawn.....Brilliant shot....you cant get much closer than that........

I thought you might know what it was Toto - it wasnt one of the massive ones. A couple were flying around and one decided to land on Charlotte's arm :-)

Wonderful close-up!

Good photo, Dawn. Well done. :o)

Thanks Uma/TT - Charlotte took the pic actually ;-), with one hand, lol as it was on her other arm.

Agree with Milky just couldnt get closer ..great shot esp when done one handed well done Charlotte.

This is how the photo cam out Ray, not edited at all. I could have zoomed in on the computer but then I would have lost his wings, love the camera Ray.

Well both of you doing a grand job with it Dawn.Photo like this really shows lens quality !

You get a dragon fly I get a fly he he. lovely picture well done with your new camera

Oh Morgana, poor you, its the pond they like. Thank you.
Like you said all along, the lens is superb. The dragonflies were on my pile of rotting wood today - you said they would like it and the old railway sleepers.

Can you get any closer Dawn?? Brilliant!

Brilliant photo Dawn :o)

Thanks Hywel & Holly.
Fluff, lol, I dont think so.

Wow!!! Impressive shot, love the angle!

How did you get so close Dawn, this is a wonderful photo and he's got brown eyes.

Thanks Tastey.
Linda: The camera was set on Macro and the camera was only a few inches away from him, he was quite content.

My camera is an old digital one so I think that Santa has heard my cries....I'll let you know if he brings me a parcel on Christmas night......SSSHHH!!!

How exciting Linda, I'm really pleased with mine, just need some time to practise.

Wow !!! It looks as if I could reach out and touch it , what an amazing shot Dawn !
