When out doing some yard work today I noticed I had a ton of young dragonflies hanging out on some wild grass. I decided it was a good opportunity to practice macros with my new K5ii and a couple of the lenses I purchased for it.
I thought this was one of the best images I took with an old Sigma 28-80mm lens.
Minor crop.

So far I am very impressed with this old lens that I picked up on Ebay for about $30.
