  • Damsels and dragons

    Out this afternoon with the EM1 and Pany 100-300mm, I wanted to capture some of the insect life in the fields and these are a few of the images I am happy with.

          Thanks All for the comments, it was a challenge I had wanted to set myslef for a while and yesterday was the first opportunity.

          These critters can be hard to capture in good light and for each shot I captured I must have lost another 3 because they flew off.

          Happy with the EM1 and 100-300 combo though and the free battery grip gives it a nice balanced feel.

            A very nice set of images Ian, those critter always seem run/fly a mile when they see me coming.
            Regards Paul.
            One day I hope to be the person my dogs think I am.
