p.1 #1 · Marsh Dragons and Butterflies

Ran out to the marsh in between thunderstorms this morning. I had hoped to find some birds, but no .
So, shoot what is around

Hope you don't mind some of the smaller winged creatures.

As always , thoughts, comments, suggestions most appreciated.

Hope you enjoy,

Birdie

***** WoW *****

I spent over an hour today shooting a very cooperative dragonfly in some decent bright light......... Your photos are 100 x's better.

Big learning curve ahead for me.

Those shots are fantastic, Birdie!

Birdie,
That dragonfly sure is unique I don't think I've seen one like that before.
Nice set.

Good looking set Birdie. Last year we had dragons galore. This year, not so much. I miss them.

Birdie, I agree with Bruce. When you have winged subjects like these, who needs birds. Excellent group and I like the first one best.

An excellent (and very sharp

) series, Birdie.
Your first shot of the dragonfly is simply out-of-this-world perfect! And unique.
