WOW..Robert!
How'd you get this image? It is awesome!!!
I really like the background and how it complements and set the stage for the dragonfly. Can you please, tell me where you found this Skimmer? Perhaps, the photo details?
Wonderful image and thanks for sharing.
Enjoy a Happy Day,

Carla ... I spoke to Merna tonight and I hope to come up that way soon with Bill Dow, who is another BP member. We want to photograph Merna's cars and Frank's Garage. If we can find some dragonflies at a nearby pond, and some other insects, I plan on setting up my mini-studio and showing you all how I photograph these. I am a trained entomologist and so I actually capture and handle the dragonflies and set them where I want them. We will be in contact soon. Looking forward to meeting the BP members that are up your way. #8565721

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.
