Metallic Dragonfly (2)

This time I was amazed by the patient of my model!I was shooting him about 10 min,but there was no reaction!Just he flew away sometimes & returned to the same place immediately!

Fabulous, I adore the details on it, but what gets to me is that incredible blue and the wings, like a dream, and the bokeh is really nice :)

Magnificent catch. I've had similar luck with a dragonfly and a wasp. The wasp flew off after each shutter click to another plant and returned to the spot where I'd been shooting it. It finally landed briefly on my hand, as if to kiss goodbye, and flew off. God is great!

Hi, I was searching my name on Google and I came across your fantastic homepage :-) You are a wonderful photographer on close ups, I do take photos as well but for sure not as good as you :-) in this shot, I love the contrast between blue and green in the background, very sharp and good compo ...
