Wow Ronnie, This is one of the best I've seen of the dragonfly. Since seeing your photos, I have noticed them more and more. I am a fan now... Cheers! Sam

Ronnie, this is another beautiful image from you. You really have mastered the art of shooting small creatures!

I am reluctant to ask you to look at a couple of my images, but I just posted a couple of dragonfly shots. I can see, by comparison, that I have a long way to go to be nearly as good as you are. Would you mind sometime looking at mine and giving me very direct feedback about how I can improve? No need for fluff comments, I can take whatever feedback you offer.

I shot the dragonflies in a neighbor's garden, and they might allow me to visit again, especially if I had an idea of how to make a better shot.

FYI: I shoot with a Canon 10d, and have a range of lenses that I can use. The most likely candidate lens is the one I used today, a 70-300mm DO IS f 4.5-5.6. I also have a good external flash, although I am not practiced with it at all.

Thanks very much!!

Hi Ronnie,

SPECTACULAR....STUNNING....BREATHTAKING!!

This is absolutely beautiful.
Perfect in every way. I like everything about it.

He does look 'Dashing'...couldn't resist that! :)
Love the composition with just a small amount of the flower in the frame. Wonderful background.

I can see why this one would be your favorite one to photograph, he is gorgeous. Another favorite for me.

Nice work,
Have a GR8 evening,
Lori :)
