Hanging Around 2

Posted by Eric Fry (Houston, TX, United States) on 24 June 2008 in Animal & Insect.

The same dragonfly as yesterday's photo, it hung from this small branch for several minutes, allowing me to get a few shots in focus. (it was early in the morning, light was low and very filtered through the trees, and my camera has a bit of difficulty focusing in those conditions.) I did have to use some flash on this shot, and I need to rig up some sort of diffuser on it to take the harshness out of the lighting for shots like this.

Taken at East End Park, Kingwood, TX.

Thanks for visiting, and I hope you all have a great day,
Eric

I'm going with the new Caspian Green template to show my support for our Aminus3 photobloggers in Iran. Many of them have been very courageous in bringing us photos from Iran during these uncertain times there; they deserve and need your support, too.

Check out the photography of a couple of my friends outside of Aminus3:
Brian Dykes' Blue Echoes Photography - Beautiful nature and city images from the guy that turned me on to Adobe Lightroom

DougOrama's Sports and Concert Photography - I wish I could take photos like DougO's...
