Actually, they are Damselflies.Lots of great photos here!
Just came across these dragonflies today...
:thumbup: Beautiful shots, Neil. Damsel- and dragonflies are my favourite critters.Lots of great photos here!
@ Knorp, the backlit 'droopy' poppy is wonderful!
Just came across these dragonflies today while out for a walk in the dark, cloudy/rainy weather we are having...can't wait for better weather!
Thanks for the correction, bug ID has never been my thing...Actually, they are Damselflies.
Cheers... M
I hear you, fourth day of 'summer' here and it's just pouring rain right now...:thumbup: Beautiful shots, Neil. Damsel- and dragonflies are my favourite critters.
I'm 'suffering' in particular from windy weather conditions here.
Almost impossible to get anything properly sharp and/or in focus.
Thank you and kind regards.
A kaleidoscope of colors Roy........very nice.CROTONS: long (6-8"), narrow (1") spiraling leaves of brilliant color...shot with the 35 Macro lens...focused on the antenna-like structure at the tip of the leaves...to be honest: shot at high noon, so there is quite a bit of burning and dodging,, along with some cropping.

Hidiho Roy,35 Macro revisited on the Labor Day dawn patrol...this is a good all-round lens, not just a macro.
