Dragon Fly, Wordless Wednesday with Linky!

05.16.2012 by Girl on Fire // 20 Comments

I have tried and tried and tried some more to get a photo that I loved of a Dragon Fly.  Time and time again I failed.  It’s not easy, try it!  Those little buggers are so fast.  By the time you frame and focus they are on the run again.  I don’t think they rest…ever.

But on Mother’s Day I did it!  I finally got my perfect shot of a Dragon Fly!  Not only did I get one shot, but several!  Maybe he was old and lazy?  Who knows, I just know I got it and I am so stoked over it.  I hope you like my shots of the Dragon Fly.

    What beautiful detail! I’ve never seen one stay still long enough to even get a very close look much less pictures.

    GREAT shot! I actually caught a shot of one once too. It was a complete fluke by the pool. I think it was sleeping! LOL I got closer and took several photos and it never moved.. when I was done it flew away with a “thank you miss paparazzi” attitude. LOL
