I caught this female in the air...hovering ...before she went to take some sips from the feeder. Their wings amaze me.

A pair of Hoverflies are attracted to the pollen on the water lily.

Shooting at dragonflies requires patience. I pretty much had to sit still to capture this shot. As I have observed, some dragonflies would like to circle around the same area for a few times. When they hover, it 's time to take the shot. For this photo, I had to set up a group of cross AF points on my EOS 7D trying to nail the focus on the vicinity of the eyes. The dragonfly hovered for about 10 seconds before it flied away.
This is another one I considered for our naxt open competition in the Projected images section, but I got a bit unconfident about the colour rendering. Looks ok on my screen but started worrying about the yellows.

Probably Syrphus ribesii or Episyrphus balteatus but if anybody out there knows different, please tell me!
This was the best shot of several - a kestrel fluttering over a possible meal. Since the original sky was a boring clear blue, I replaced it to add a bit more interest.

A capture of a hover fly captured back in August last year whilst on my holiday in Somerset , haven't posted this one previously as I wasn't happy with the movement on the wings. But then again that was never the focal point.
I saw this interestingly coloured plant (thistle?) and just as I was taking a photo this bug (hoverfly?) barged into the frame. This was taken with an 85mm prime lens, which has quite a long minimum focus distance, and cropped down to show just this portion of the image.

I already posted a shot of Hover Home on a day that had direct light. This shot had an even greater contrast range and I had to use three layers to produce a reasonably accurate shot of the elements: drive, carport and entrance. The sky was better from this angle but I knew it would take more editing work. I decided that every time I drove out to McIntosh, I passed the old Hover Estate strangely located on Hover Street. While this might seem to be a grand city home, it was nearly 2.5 miles out of most spots within Longmont. It must have been a country estate but I found nothing so far that says the land was agricultural. The surrounding area had to have agricultural at the time and it was another 2.5 miles out to McIntosh.
The Saint Vrain Historical Society describes the house as, "...elegant, English Tudor, Gothic Revival home of Charles and Katherine Hover, was constructed in 1913-1914. Designed by the Denver architectural firm of Roeschlaub & Roeschlaub, the 6000 square foot house was built according to 56 pages of detailed specifications calling for “all materials and workmanship to be of the finest quality throughout.”
During the 70 years the Hovers and their adopted daughter Beatrice resided at Hoverhome, the property was carefully maintained and remains in excellent condition. Reflecting Jacobethan detailing, parapeted stone roof gables rise above the steep-pitched roof and Tudor arches grace the entry porch and front door.
"The distinctive home was constructed at a cost of approximately $25,000. A local newspaper reporting its completion in June 1914, described it as “modern in every particular, including electric lights and heat and conveniences and comforts found only in a large city.”
I realized that there are other landmarks in the town that I could shoot.vi guess you could call this an estate.
