In Flight...
Off with fellow photographer Tayla late this afternoon photographing blue Damselflies as they emerged from their casings along the drain between Rendelsham and Southend – South East South Australia.
This larger dragonfly flew past and then hovered near us giving time to get one shot off as it sat over the water flowing along the drain.
Beautiful small creatures flitting about amongst the grasses all around us.
Canon 400D – Sigma 70 – 300 macro lens – hand held.
