Just about eye level with the me, and not leaving.
Taken with my ‘B&W setup’. One part of this, the camera is single shot. That’s normal for many people, however shooting wildlife most of the time I never shoot this way. Also no back button focus, makes for different style of photography.
Gear; OM-1 (1), Olympus 12-200, custom mode.
Beautiful shot — looks like he’s about to take off!
He stayed around, or I would have missed this for sure. One of those subjects that typically requires more patience than I have.
He looks like Evinrude from The Rescuers!
🤣🤣. Up until this moment I had no idea who Evinrude is. Now I’m watching a YouTube Dragonfly and Bats. 😆😆. Love it thanks. So much better than the news.
Yup, attitude on steroids. Fabulous beastie.
Nothing about this was my usual style 😂. We had some brutal heat this year… tropical, humid, just hide inside, days. Wandered around back of the house and found plenty to shoot 😁.
