It was high up in a tree so it provided a different point of view from usual for me.
Dragonflies and Damselflies

Really poetic subject. Wonderful, Alan.
Is the wing getting blind or is it fogged? I cannot recognise it.
One of my last pictures. A migrant hawker.
It's getting cold and rainy throughout the next week. I don't think that I will have much more chances on dragonflies.
I still have some on my HDD but I'm already awaiting the the 2022 season

Common Darters are the most common at present. Here's one close up with the 100-500mm at 1000mm.
Crop (1 pixel = 1 pixel of original).Great sharpness on the eye.
Full pic or cropped?
Thanks for that info. Of course I could have checked the file name
before asking, which I didn't.
The Southern Hawkers are still around. I stalked this one and took far too many shots to get all of its long, ~3"/7.5cm, body in focus. 100-500mm.
Twas worth it, Alan. Great series.
Looking at the wings this was a really old individual.
There are still some Ruddy Darters around. I got this one yesterday with the 100-500mm. It's a pity I didn't have the RF 100-400mm as I'd like to have tested it.
It's the best shot I have got of the grid of lenses on an eye because the light was right. Focus stacked to get both ends sharp.
