This was my first time shooting fire dancers/spinners at night. Some post processing was required to get the results seen here.
I used my Nikon D600 with a Sigma 70-300mm f/4-5.6 "APO" macro lens with internal focus motor ($100 used on eBay).
I have a bunch of other shots of the firedancers in this set- check 'em out if'n ya like this sort of thang.

Photographed in Big Valley, California.
I captured these images when the dragonflies landed on the tops of some pieces of steel rebar that stick way up from a partially demolished hot tub.
These were shot in full daylight. I darkened the background by stopping down to F/16 or so at 1/500th, and used an on-camera TTL hotshoe flash to light the subject.
I got as close to the subjects as I could. The lens was a cheap 70-300mm zoom. It's closest focusing distance is quite far, so these images were heavily cropped from a six megapixel RAW, despite being shot at 450mm equivalent focal length.
The following image was stacked using multiple exposures together using the "Average" function of Markus Enzweiler's excellent program StarStaX, which can be downloaded for free here:

The difference is amazing
These wee pebbles were once buried in sand, and as the sand eroded in the rain, they were left as you see them here, resting on pillars, awaiting their inevitable collapse.
I photographed this critter (a caterpillar?) as it crawled across the road in Brantingham, New York in August, 2008.
I don't know what it turns into, but I was impressed by it's size and bright color.
The quarter was included for scale.
My ever-faithful 1983 Chevette Scooter is about to be claimed by it's new owner. This is one of its last mementos.
