This dragonfly devoured an entire insect in front of my eyes. Unfortunately, I had the wrong lens on my camera at this point and tried shooting with my zoom lens. By the time a got a decent shot, most of the victim had been eaten.

SB 600 off camera. Taken earlier this summer (2007), and I do not remember details.

In twenty years of watching insects I had never seen this uncommon fly of rivers and streams. Two days ago I saw my first one and today I saw AND photographed 2 more in another location. Amazing!

we went for a lovely walk in Vogrie Country Park. I took tripod and my new toy - a macro focussing rail - along. I am very pleased with the rails. Next, I should have a go at focus stacking.
