BELINDA GROVER PHOTOGRAPHY

STOPS ALONG THE WAY

DRAGONFLY

27 Comments

As the long days of winter drag on continue, I dream of warm weather and plan summer projects. One of these is to do more insect photography. I never really appreciated their variety and beauty until I took up photography more seriously. Dragonflies are favourites of mine for their colour and delicacy and how they seem to pose so thoughtfully for the camera.

    Though I’m not really a bug enthusiast, I have also discovered a fascination in them through photography. I’m so anxious for Spring!

    Hi Belinda,
    Lovely shot, these guys take a lot of patience to photograph well, great work!
    I can’t wait for Spring already so I can start stalking all of the cute bugs on flowers in the garden. I hope this winter goes quickly…

    Gorgeous photo, I remember these little beauties landing on me as a child in Michigan on the lake. They are everywhere and so delicate.

    Like Brian, I am glad your dragonflies enjoy posing for you – ‘my’ ones dart about so quickly from one place to the next.
