Its looking at me



I know the picture is not in Olypauls league, this thing was flying around yesterday lunchtime and landed on the windowsill, I rattled off a few pics with the point and shoot under its nose. Maybe it was posing ? It flew off after and disappeared into next doors garden. Just wanted to share the best pic I`ve taken of one of these

Well, it's in focus and it's sharp - the main problem is lighting. Maybe flash would have helped?

Re: Its looking at me

That's a big one,

I was watching a dragonfly the other day waiting for it to settle.

It wasn't as photogenic as yours...........It just flew away!

I think I was lucky to get it to stay still that long.
