Description

Hi Guys,

Went out for about half an hour today to get away from the computer and shoot some Dragons.Unfortunately it was a bit rainy again and there where hardly any Dragons around...except for this fellow!This one was flappin' it's wings to dry a bit from the rain.
Took a couple of shots and went back indoors..

Greetings,

Jeroen Stel
