A bit of a tricky shot through a lot of intervening foliage but the insect kindly let me crab walk around its position to find the clearest shot. :-)

Cheers

Incredibly nice, sharp image, Dennis.

I know, when I took the picture, I thought that she only had the dragonfly, but I think she has like 4 insects there (I think there might be a cricket in there too). When she hunts along the water edge, she makes this darting up and down motion as she "hovers" to pull off damselflies off the reeds. She is pretty talented, her mate just sits up high and watches over to make sure no enemies approach, or he gets loud and starts flying all over and acts like he going to dive bomb me.

Another dragonfly shot... this was taken as I practiced with my new klunky macro setup.
