I used to shot a lot of these with the 828, now trying for the first time with the 20D and 100mm Macro

These are super cool Pete, I like the second the most. Aren't dragonfly eyes the coolest? Good stuff...

The Sony's are really good for this sort of work, but like you I too have moved on to the Canon 20D and the 100mm Macro lens

Your dragonfly is the prettiest blue, metalic blue, I love it, he even looks like he's smiling.........boy I hope when I'm in America later this year that I get to find someone really neat like a big Dragonfly or even one of those Hummingbird Moths, now that would be cool.....ohhhhh I almost forgot you have beautiful fluffy bees too

Thanks for sharing your stunning Dragonfly, I love the smiling one

Cool shots Pete,
I especially like #2. Great clarity with a good color background that compliments the very cool blue of your dragon.

Thanks for sharing,
Chris

Well there ain't nothing wrong with the resolution of the 20D and 100mm macro now is there Pete . As Stevie Ray would say "Walking the tight rope" . EXCELLENT work and shots here Pete. Sharp and your selective focus could not better. Gorgeous colours and rich details.

thanks everyone
I was not using a flash, the reflections are from the sun, Its Hot N Humid here in TN.

I have a lot more to process, my goal is to get some flying dragons in the next week.
