Thanks, Charlie. Dragonflies are usually quite skittish when I approach them. I haven't had much luck, but I have
seen some very good images by others. Good luck!
I've shot a handful of usable dragonfly pics on film, but sure nothing to write
home about.
Things improved with digital and longer lenses with IS. Then with the M.Zuiko 75-300 and Oly IBIS, I really got some
decent shots. I've post a few over recent years, but don't really know where without a search.
Two years ago, we walked around a pond marsh with many different colors and sizes. This is the Wow shot from that day.

One problem with dragonflies is that the transparent wings make many backgrounds problematic. I liked this one a lot,
but the closer, busier background isn't as helpful as the first. <http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=17893>
I'm looking forward to more, likely clearer, with the improved IBIS on the E-M5
II.
