Dragonfly Eating Lunch


	Dragonfly Eating Lunch I shot this out in our yard in North Carolina. I saw him on a limb and was going to see if I could get a good shot of him up close to show off his pretty eyes. Then I discovered that he was having lunch! Shot handheld with my Canon 5D Mark II, Canon 100 mm L Macro lens with KX-800 twin flash and homemade diffuser. Settings are f16, 1/125, ISO 320.

Great shot Shirley. Lunch does not look appetizing.

Thank you, Candace. I totally agree, not my kind of lunch, but he seemed quite pleased with it. <><
