Today I was trying on anax DIFs again. Maaaan, that was frustrating
Never came closer than 6 m. Not even once hovering. I had to pan all the time and you can imagine how small they were in the VF at that distance.
AF wasn't cooperative, too. But I managed to get those at least decent and well backlit. Those are 1:1 crops, so I would say 15 m away.
1/1600, f/8, ISO3200
In the end, at about 15:45 CEST all at once stopped flying, for whatever reason. Haven't seen this before.
But that gave me the chance to spot this one here, still quite far away.
1/500, f/8, ISO1000
This one is spot on! A great shot needs the head and tail in focus and you have positioned perfectly.In the end, at about 15:45 CEST all at once stopped flying, for whatever reason. Haven't seen this before.

Beautiful picture. Great shot!
Thanks, Click and Alan.This one is spot on! A great shot needs the head and tail in focus and you have positioned perfectly.
Great green-eyed, Cog.Shot on m4/3 Olympus, but that's what I could have with me on a trip.
Thank you, Maximilian! No, this one was shot during the trip to my home place in Russia. We have some dragonflies in Qatar, but the light is too harsh during daytime, when they are active.Great green-eyed, Cog.
Did you shoot it in Qatar? (Wouldn't expect it there )
Or at which location?
And about the Oly:
Best gear is the one with you! Still welcome
