Wow, great job capturing this shot! I suppose it did help that it came back 5 times, but still.....very nice work! However, I would like to see more of the dragonfly in the shot. I think it would be even more incredible if the rest of his wings and body? tail? were in the shot. But once again - great capture!!

Great detail on this shot too! You can see all of the hairs on his LEGS even... I love dragonflies' eyes, they are always so big and bulging and always come out great in photos

Phoenixtear In reply to eswanson [2004-09-17 11:57:34 +0000 UTC]

I love them too
I SO cant wait for a macro lens for my camera. By the time I do, all the Dragonflys will disappear until spring *sniff*
They're cool friendly little guys ^-^ They even let me pet them
