A few more from this last weekend.
There were several pairs of Hawkers in Cop.
Just for a laugh, i took a new lens out with me(but i wish i had used my dedicated macro lens instead). That lens being the Nikon AF-S 300mm f/4D, which i bought on the Sunday morning. Its alright for close ups, but not as a good as a macro lens. Quite heavy too, when coupled to a Nikon D700!
Cheers Paul.

3rd shot is cropped some, Panasonic FZ50/Raynox 150 macro lens. Took this the weekend before, just a few Damselflies on the wing now, but if you look real hard, there are still some around in October.
