Welcome to macro. Great series, all lovely photos..
In flight of dragonflies are not easy – you did very well. Looks like it might be a migrant hawker in which case you did very very well, those suckers are fast.

You're right, it's extremely difficult to get good focus on one of those dragons in flight! Especially when using the 350d with a 70-300 IS as I did. This lens doesn't have very fast AF at all, so I had to be pretty patient to get some pretty good shots. Here are two more: ![]() ![]() |
