Female Southern Hawker

Full Size

By Janp

This dragonfly was flying around for ages then luckily for me she landed to lay her eggs, but within a minute she was off again! Taken at Parc Slip Nature Reserve.

    Cracking shot Jan. Did you use a Raynox or similar?

      Thanks Grant, I was so excited that it landed when I got home I couldn’t remember what lens I used! I didn’t use the Raynox as I find it takes ages to get it in focus and I didn’t want to loose my opportunity so it was my good old 14 42mm pretty close up!

    Nice one Jan. Just shows what you can do with a standard lens if the opportunity arrises.
