I was at work today, looking at the menu on the new Nikon D60, and wishing there was something new around here to take pictures of, when I heard something hit the glass in the bay doors.
Looked over and saw this laying on the floor.
Thankee!![]()
Thought he was dead for a minute, then I saw his legs and wings twitch a little every now and then. Flipped him over on a piece of copy paper and took him out and layed him on the grass.
Wasn't anything happening, so I put him on the hood of my truck. And, yes I put my hand on it to see if it was to hot. Don't need any fried dragonflies!
These were shot from around four feet away with the 200mm VR lens.
He flopped around and flew for a second.
Finally took off...........
and landed on his back!
Took off again...............
DOH!
Once again, airborne bound.
Then he stopped.....
Looked like he was getting the cobwebs out of his head, if not off his wings, so I backed up a little, and he took off. Can't get that picture to show up!
When I figure it out, I'll update!
Uploaded it again. There we go!
There. That's my good deed for this month!
