Andrew, Thank you for commenting . I love them too but they and damselflies seem to be few and far between where I live even though we have a couple of ponds close by. This was shot with a D500 and 200-500mm lens in the Kruger National Park about 1000 miles away !

Oosty must be short for Oosthuizen, I have never been to Lake Panic to shoot dragonflies. Amazingly sharp with the equipment you used. Veels geluk from a fellow South African

Spot on Len - I was there for the birds which were pretty sparse but spotted a couple of dragonflies going back and forth. I think I have a great copy of the 200-500mm and using Steve's sharpening actions always bring out the best. This was also the first time I used the new "denoise" feature in Lightroom C

Hi Gavin thank you. I love it too even though it can get very busy there's usually something going on. Just a long haul from Knysna though
