Very nice shots Chris, No1, really nice shot, looks square on.
The 1st shot of the stacks looks to be the best for me but I'm on a tablet.
Really love those close head shots, if you don't mind me asking how do you get so close without them flying off? Is it earlier before they get warm and active? Or are you just more stealthy and lighter footed than me? (That's not gonna be hard to be more stealthy lol)
"Excellent" set of images Chris, with some very fine detail. I like them all very much.
George.
What an impressive dragon! Really great to see and very well captured.
The last one looks to have very high contrast. I guess it could be a result of the stacking, or perhaps strong sunlight. Not sure if it's worth playing with the contrast a bit, it may work better with it slightly lower, it may not...
As it goes dragonflies and damselflies will let you get close, really close, it's not all of them though, I think some really like having their photo taken and are very tolerant of us and even like to watch us watching them.Really love those close head shots, if you don't mind me asking how do you get so close without them flying off?

Amazing shots Chris well done, I was out on Saturday doing the same thing, I watched a really big bugger flying around for 5 or 6 minutes thinking come on your wings have got to get tired soon. They didn't.
