And now for something completely different: Dragonfly

The other day when I was coming back from work, I’ve noticed something large sitting on our window sill outside.  It was quite still, and didn’t even move when I got closer.  It was a huge dragonfly.  I always wanted to catch one, and this proved to be a great opportunity.  It was sitting motionless for a long time, so I managed to grab my seldom used macro lens and the camera of course, and had a mini photo session.  One thing I’ve noticed that the dragonfly did not want to smile or pose.  It just sat there.  I tried telling jokes and asking nicely to move this way or that.  It all fell on def ears.  I apologize for no smiles and no posing, but still the dragonfly was kind enough to allow me to take some portraits of it, before it got tired and flew away. Enjoy.

Wow, great shots Mac! Way to use that 100mm macro more often! :D He’s got some pretty big dreamy eyes *swoon*
