I was content to get a photo of the lock but then this dragonfly stopped by to tell me that today is Gail Vitikacs and Kitty Roderhorst-Hanna's birthday. Soooo, happy birthday to Kitty and Gail. Here's wishing you a blessed day!

  Morning, neighbor. How fortuitous! I love the first one -- the color and depth of field are perfect and the dragonfly is a wonderful addition to an already great macro.

  Gail & Kitty> a Very Belated Happy Birthday!!

Ken> I had a beautiful red one land on my red fly rod, and he just wanted to stick!! The fishing was bad, so I guess he was letting me know I should have been shooting!
Great captures(!!), but as above, they only show up for me when I am fishing!!..:):) so could you lend me some?
