Flight

A few flying things from this morning.

that dragonfly picture is incredible... how did you manage to pull that off?!

The dragonfly was 6-7 metres away hovering from spot to spot. I set a rough focus with the telescope and waited. Got him in the field of view, quick fine focus and banged off 5 or so shots. Repeat until happy. Focusing was the hard part, got a few fuzzies.

sounds like tough work, but the result is really great - nice
