I haven't posted much of late,but have been putting in the time when not grafting my butt off,so I have a fair old backlog to address.
We had a ball in a hide recently,I don't often shoot from hides it really felt quite strange being inside photographing outside. I do so admire you guys that tough it out in hides. This youngster (Ibelieve) was completely enchanting and I really enjoyed it's company and exploits learnt so much and got a bucket ful of pics. I so wish I could have been lower,but it really was a blast trying to catch her exploits. i've been hankering for a dabchick shot for eons now,but they have always eluded me. This is one of my favourites it was wonderful how she went into stealth mode so low in the water. I struggled a bit with exposure but she gave me so many chances with such variation I simply couldn't mess them all up. It was so damn cool being right there with her and having so many different types of shot to go for. I would greatly appreciate thoughts and critique. Canon 1Div 300f2.8 1/1600 f5.6 iso 1250 processed in dpp4 I believe it is a red eyed damsel that she's/he's chasing. She was really quite good at this although this one escaped and took larger dragonflies as well. As framed,I hope to post a few more as time allows Cheers for all the previous help guys
take care
