Wow, a very difficult shot! Voted.

Wolfgang Wander		09-Oct-2005 00:26
Very impressive - an in-flight dragonfly is hard to get. Check your background though. It looks a bit pixelated and can be easily fixed in photoshop...

Unbelievable. All I can say. I'm speehless.

Karen Stuebing		08-Oct-2005 10:35
Unbelievable capture. This conveys both motion and clarity. I can even see a little drop of dew.

Herb, in original it looks like one of your glider buddies-no wonder you do so well with these. Wow.

Fantastic action shot. Really looks like a big helicopter.

Sharon Rogers		07-Oct-2005 20:20
I was watching a dragonfly checking out my pond today, but there's no way I would even consider trying to shoot it. This is a very impressive catch!

Al Chesworth		07-Oct-2005 19:57
That's magnificent Herb. Voted.

Mo		07-Oct-2005 19:50
Impressive macro, well done! Just a small point: there are some visible artifacts at the dragonfly's edges - is that due to JPG-compression or image editing? And the artifacts in the background?

Coleen Perilloux Landry		07-Oct-2005 19:46
Great capture.

Zak		07-Oct-2005 19:34
Great Catch!!

wernere01		07-Oct-2005 19:27
Genau die Aufnahme für die ich gestern zwei Stunden an einem Teich gesessen habe. Geht natürlich nicht mit einer ganz billigen Digitalkamera. Wirklich wunderschön !

Gayle P. Clement		07-Oct-2005 19:27
I need lessons! I need to know how to do these great mid-air photos!

viljamix		07-Oct-2005 19:25
