Mark,
Apparently, only a panorama could do justice to the lovely scene.
I adored the macros on your site as well :)

like that butterfly shot.

Thanks, Bob - she had a great time but I'm sure I enjoyed the field
better than the reunion!

HI Bruce - Thanks for looking. All shots are hand held with a monopod
and flash on a DIY bracket. I do wish that Pentax would allow anti-shake
to work when flash is used - a bit of fill flash does not freeze the
subject and the anti-shake would be nice...

Thanks, Chris! I commented a bit on stalking techniques in some earlier
relies just now - but a lot of it is perseverance, patience, and a
willingness to get down on the ground and shoot horizontal (or as close
to it as possible) when they perch just a foot or so above the ground.

Yes - that is a big part of it with some species. You can almost always
count on 12 spotted skimmers and many of the meadowhawks to come back to
the same perch. Some species though never do that - widow skimmers and

Thanks, Tom - It is indeed good to have the 200mm macro back, though the
100mm plus TC was excellent as well. I keep meaning to try to e 200 with
the matched 1.5x converter, but keep forgetting to put the TC in the bag.

chasing...

To give a serious answer it's usually easy. Dragonflies seem to like to
perch in a particular place, scare it away, and if you wait quietly long
enough they usually come back.

Wonderful shots, Mark.
I don't know how you manage to spot, much less shoot, all those dragonflies.
I do enjoy looking at them, though.

How nice!
Certainly would have been my preference to a reunion - even my own school!
Enjoyed the snaps and the narrative - and I came here just when I needed
that diversion
Thanks, Mark - just lovely
