Wood you smile?
Today there were lots of Dragonflies at the childrens farm. So it was photographing time 🙂
The Little Dragon
Still use the first camera once in a while, its a small compact camera (Canon Powershot 470). Really great for macro photography. So probably should get a macro lens to have a bit of fun 🙂 As the temperature is rising, soon insects will start to flourish again. And that means that the dragons will also show up again. These images were shot in the garden, and the dragonfly you see is a Common Darter. Played a bit with colors and black and white for this result
Mystery Dragonflies
These pictures are from two types of Dragonflies, but i don’t know the names.. would love to know which species these are! Is there a dragonfly expert on wordpress?? 🙂

Here are some of my personal favorites from last week 🙂
