Unfortunately there aren't a lot of places around here with dragonflies - where do you normally go to shoot? Eric

You have there a female ruddy darter and in #4 the female broad bodied chaser - for the broad bodied chaser, you should submit it as a record for the online survey that is taking place on this species this year. A good photo to submit and it will also verify your sighting. http://lindabuckell.zenfolio.com/

Awesome shots- I might get out tomorrow morning before I leave and get some more shots Nice set very impressive Thank you Ferco..I hope you managed to get some.

Unfortunately there aren't a lot of places around here with dragonflies - where do you normally go to shoot? I have found quite a few on some local grassland near my house, which is where all of these shots were taken. Weve had severe flooding here recently which meant all the local streams and rivers are no go areas. racketman wrote in post #3641439 great series, lovely light.
