Some pictures from dragon-fly - Libellules in French and also butterfly ...

They are all amazing photographs, I have never managed to capture a dragonfly yet, they just do not sit still in my garden. Thank you for the pictures they are great.

Lovely photos ray... do you do photography for a living?

I was wondering the same thing Franny. Ray's photos are always excellent aren't they? thanks Ray!

Ray sent me a link to his website with his photos on they are truly truly amazing. it is on one of these pictures somewhere will look in a minute and see which one.

just magnificent, the photos are fab. Thank you.

Ray, on your profile you apologise for your poor English - you don't need to - wonderful pictures like these say everything you need to and are worth a thousand words. Congratulations! I once, many, many years ago went on an entomological field trip to the Puy de Dome area, and we went looking for libellulides- we found the most astonishing and beautiful iridescent blue damsel flies. Do you know the sort I mean? Do you by any chance have any photographs of those? If so, I should dearly love to see them.

Any blog, any time Ray.
