Couple three recent images - 09-11-2011, 11:58 AM

Critique: CC:

Haven't been out shooting since last weekend, felt good to get out.

#1 Blue dasher male

#2 Diogmites robberfly

Last shot is an awful shot of a male green darner but illustrates nicely how hard it is to find and/or spot them perched. They are most often on the wing looking for females and when they do perch, it's in the most godawful places.

Very nice Kenny, but that second image really stands out.

I have to echo for the Robber Fly. Nice job Kenny.
