You really gotta tell me how you got that so sharp. Did you sneak off and get a dedicated macro lens wile I wasn’t looking? This is really awesome Lisa!

And yes, I’m a dozen or more posts behind in catching up with you. And everybody else too it seems.

Wow! Fantastic shots. I find dragonflies so hard to capture, they never sit still for too long and always perch just out of reach. You are so lucky!

Your macro lens is practically a microscope! What a close up view of such an interesting detail. Love the wings pattern.

That is amazing!!! Those wings! They look like stained glass windows! Wouldn’t it be cool to fill them in with color in a Photoshop program or something? Love this!

All I can say is WOW! I have tried to capture dragonflies and actually thought mine were good…until now! You must have used a tripod…how that critter waited for you to set up is amazing! Beautiful!

Very cool macro. Was it shot just out in nature? It’s so clear, I would almost guess a lightbox, but either way, great shot.
