These are some really nice shots. I think that the second one is my favorite.

These are just exceptional Frank. Love the bokeh in the first one, goes really good with the colour of the dragonfly. My favourite though is the second one. The detail in all of them is excellent. This is great work Frank.

Jake.

Well done Frank, they are all really colorful and have great detail. Interesting that you took them last year, I am curious how this years dragonfly shots will compare after a few thousand more shutter clicks and a year's experiance.

thanks for showing them

Vin
