Great shot Rob! I was going through all the birds and planes and wondering if anyone would dare shoot an insect after all the recent carping about them. I've tried capturing dragonflies a couple of times and its really hard. |

Does that look like a piece of fishing line or etc attached to his tail? Well nice work. 7 |

You've really caught the transluscent quality of the dragonfly's wings. Beautiful shot. |

Nice catch of an in-flight dragon. This must be hard! Real shame we can't see its head though. |

The wing is covering the head, |

You were able to capture some really beautiful colors in the dragonfly. The blurring of the wings help to give a dynamic motion feeling. The depth of field really help to bring out the dragonfly. |

Wow, what a difficult subject to try to photograph 10 out 10 for the attempt but in this field I award you an 8. An above or below view point would have let me vote higher. |

Good one, I love the olivey green tones in the background. A pity you couldn't have frozen it completely and avoided the motion blur on the left wing, but I know how difficult it is to capture something like this in flight so I'm not complaining at all :-) |

nice capture - do you happen to know what kind of dragonfly it is? I have caught the top half of one but never the whole thing and wondered about the kind |

Not too bad....they aren't easy to photography when moving. You did well to get this. |

Don't know how you got this but it's pretty cool. I like that you didn't use a higher speed to freeze its wings. I think freezing them would've made this look fake. Good luck in the challenge. |

Excellet! Shows the motion of the wings yet the detail on the body! Wonderful! |
