Dragonflies...

Well I’m on vacation and look what I found near the beach …

It’s my first attempt (a bit windy and low light) so sorry for not so sharp photo, I had to use my flash too ;-).

It was very hard to approach and use my 150 so I used my 70-300 apo macro super II.

That Dragonfly was very alert … now I can understand how difficult it is to photograph yet beautiful…

Well done Kostas
That is a good one , for a first attempt..

Somehow I think that picture is rather 3 Dimensional ... maybe its the out of focus branch in the background , that makes that effect...

The photograph isolates and perpetuates a moment of time: an important and revealing moment, or an unimportant and meaningless one, depending upon the photographer's understanding of his subject and mastery of his process. -Edward Weston
