Mar 05, 2022 19:44 | #1322 This Graphic Flutterer was chiling in the sun when I stopped to get a few shots. This is the best one I got. It always feels a bit like cheating when I try to get macro shots with a telephoto lens...  Image hosted by forum (1147851) © medmonds [SHARE LINK] THIS IS A LOW QUALITY PREVIEW.

Especially with that close-focusing lens (there's even a thread for 'macros' with that lens). It's the picture that matters, not the gear. Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.

The adults you see flying only live a few months, if that. Most don’t die a natural death, but are eaten by fish, birds, etc.

Got even luckier in that the Damselfly let me bang off a few shots before flying off. Taken with Canon RF 100mm F2.8 L IS USM Macro lens (not yet in database). Cheers Dennis Lovely shots. How are you finding the RfF 100mm?
