Gorgeous! I love macros! #4569157Joseph M. Muench July 27, 2007
Thank you all for your comments! This dragonfly was really a patient subject - I couldn't believe how long it stayed still and how close it allowed me to get. It was near the end of a long, hot day, so maybe it was just tired out! #4569388William Moore October 02, 2007

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
