Nice close ups, OddBall!


Glad you pointed out the frog in the water by the dragonfly's. I would have missed it.

Dragonflys are hard to shoot. They love to fly off quick.

The wings on that one look like gold. Very nice!

I didn't notice him when I took the picture. Just when I was cropping and re-sizing it, did I notice his head.

That's the truth. I was constantly swapping lenses and flipping the auto focus on and off, just trying to get a good shot. I tossed more pictures than I kept.

Nice pic

I love shooting them because when the light hits them just right, they are beautiful.
