Dragonfly, Marsh Reeds

Not a subject I shoot very often however the air was filled with all types and sizes.

Here I had a never before lens used, and a camera used maybe three times. The focal length was only 40-150mm. Yet in this marsh if you can take standing in the reeds a minute or so something small will be right in front of you. With luck it doesn’t bite.

Considering all the buttons and dials are not where I expect I’ll take these images a a win.

    1. Thanks. Ellen had parked the car on a dike, my door close to reeds and yes, water. Waiting for her to return, we split up often, I was leaning on the car and watching the Dragonfly’s. Just focused a bit and pushed the button. I was tempted to use electronic shutter. However, 150 per second will fill the card before I even know it 😂🤣😂🤣.

      Short version, they came to me LOL. But thanks 👍
