Awesome !

Good, damn good in fact.

#3 for me purely because I've never seen a dragonfly eating before.

Thank's Steve, it was a first for me too

[bnnrcn]

Just great

[Brownbear]

Exceptional as always. Amazing DOF.

I can't believe that you managed to capture #3 (the feast) with every bit of the wings and such soft highlights.

At this moment my favourite is the 1st for the all around beauty of the dragonfly, gorgeous tones and the background.

I always like to see them eating. For me, that makes a special point of interest compared with all the shots which get taken of them sitting on a leaf etc.

A couple of days ago, I found a damselfly apparently feeding on a small spider, which I haven't seen before. But my initial shot didn't work too well and when I tried for a better angle it flew off; as so often happens.

[Shadowman]

Nice captures.

Thank you Christina, very much appreciated

[deetheturk]

Cheers Geoff, like i said earlier this was a first for me to see one eating, hopefully not the last

[deetheturk]

Thank's John

[Rita]

Nice ones David. Of the 3 I prefer 1 because of the pose, almost like it was waiting to have it's pic taken.

Great shots and especially the 3rd. Well done to see and capture that so well.
