Week #3 - Flying Dragon
by Laura Milholland

Las Gallinas ponds, San Rafael, CA

Lots of dragonflies around the pond on my walk yesterday, and since some were
hovering a bit I was able to catch this one in flight.
I think he was keeping an eye on me.

What a great time you must have had with all those dragonflies. Sure got a great shot of one in flight! Too wonderful!

What a fun catch to get one hovering in the air. Good stop motion speed.
