Talking My Favorite Subject the Dreaded Dragonfly
I have tried to resist taking more photographs of dragonflies, but I couldn't. So here are some more shots of my favorite subject. They were all taken with the 100-400mm lens and an extension tube.

I know what you mean about being unable to resist dragon-flies. They pose for the camera. This one is beautiful... we don't have that color-combo in Georgia.

I especially like the full body shots. Beautiful!

One of my favorite subjects, too and I don't tire of them, so don't be bashful about posting more.

They don't pose around here, they fly away! I am still waiting for a good shot!
