Sooo nice Jan. The colors of the damselfly, and the background, make for a beautifully composed shot.

Excellent shots, Lester. The ones in the UK always seem to have slightly different colors than the ones here, which, I suppose, should be expected. :-)

Nice shots, sharp and nicely lit. That 180 must be wonderful for dragonflies.

Thanks, yes the extra reach and tighter perspective helps a lot,

Also the 180 is a my go-to macro for tripod and beanbag work. I find the 100 classic hard to use on a bean bag because it is short enough the focus ring can move as it is in contact with the bag, with 180 the ring is well off the bag.
