Re: Emperor Dragonfly flight
I'm going to be the odd one out here Stan. That is an excellent capture to get it mid-air like that. However I like to see a little 'habitate' in shots. Hope you're not offended, that's just me -- would not do for all of us to be the sameTrev

Re: Emperor Dragonfly flight
thanks for looking guys
half an hour and a lot of frustrationHow the hell did you manage that lol
no problem Trev, although I think with this sort of shot it is more about capturing the moment. this shot was from a hide at Barnes and the dragonfly was flying back and forth at eye level and not really hovering at all so it was a question trying to lock on and shooting as I panned and hope to get one sharp.That is an excellent capture to get it mid-air like that.

Here is another shot from Arne a couple of years back where the dragon was flying over and close to the pond so shooting downwards and even here the background is quite clear

Re: Emperor Dragonfly flight
Another excellent shot and I do prefer it to the first. The background is more natural and also there's a contrast of the colours. I'd love to be able get something anywhere close to either of those!Chris

Re: Emperor Dragonfly flight
Same as Chris Stan, the second is my pick of the two, it looks more natural. Nevertheless two good shots, bad enough trying to capture a sparrow in flight leave alone something that sizeTrev
