Thanks for the great comments!

Learning a lot about close up work recently, like I need a better macro lens 8-)

We get these in the garden every year about this time, but I havent seen one with quite that color of eyes before

Nice capture Andy. I've been keeping AN eye open for some dragons to shoot. :uhoh Not much luck so far. Maybe the birds of prey ate them all....and the three headed fire breathing dragons ate the birds of prey. That might explain why I can't find either to shoot?

Cheers

Ever since Iowa instigated the 3 headed fore breathing dragon proof fence, we dont see too many of those any more

I'd gladly give up the dragonfly's for more accessible BOP. I see them all the timewhen drving around, but the minute I leave the car they all seem to disapear. Can't wait for December when the Bald Eagles start hanging around the Iowa river, always good chances then
