Great shot Alan!Common Darters are the most common at present. Here's one close up with the 100-500mm at 1000mm.

If you still have a wings - it's not you!Me or the dragonfly?
A great camera... in its day. How I remember following the "Anything shot" thread with its amazing photos, with awe.This one is from a while back, and it's the shot that killed my 1D X (the main PCB failed right after this image).

Still great. I recently got around to having Canon replace the PCB. I will probably sell it, not certain yet.A great camera... in its day. How I remember following the "Anything shot" thread with its amazing photos, with awe.
Depends on the features and specs.Are you interested in an R1?
I finally found the time to process the best pic I took the next day. And the focus plane is much better hereThe 2022 season has begun.
I suppose this is a common winter damselfly (sympecma fusca).
And I suppose I need to train my alignment of focus plane again
I hope I'll find them again tomorrow.
Wonderful catch, Alan.My first dragonfly of the season, a Hairy Dragonfly, the smallest hawker, which emerges before the others. I haven't shot one before. It's so long that with a 1000mm of lens and standing 4.5 m away, it nearly filled the height of the screen.
