Nick, we have missed you on TN. Looks like you too were busy like me for quite some time in the recent past. I have now turned quite regular.
This is a superb capture of this good looking Dragonfly found in your area. The POV presents a very vivid impression of the subject.
Hope to see you posting regularly.

Hello Nick,
Nice to see you back on TN again!
A fine capture of the Four-spotted Chaser taken from a good POV with excellent sharpness, colours and lighting. It is resting on an interesting plant that I don't recognise.
I see you are using the 300 f4 + 1.4 converter, same as I do. I think its great for most purposes except close macros and landscapes.
Thanks and kind regards,
Ivan

It's a beautiful one, Nick, I love this dragon very much, they have so many tiny hairs and the wings are wonderful.
You captured this one so excellent, the wings are glittering and the colours are warm and pretty. Thanks

Hi Nick,
I too haven't been on TN much this year as I have had so little time to do so,what with work and photoing nature.This photo of yours has very good colour and saturation and sharp looking details especially in the veins of the wings.The point of view is good and gives a nice topside view.Thanks for sharing this view with us.
