What kind of flower is that? Gary you should know....
Why thank you sir! I've been trying to get a dragonfly for some time as I think they are the world's coolest bugs. This is the first time one sat still for me.

The dog? Uhhhhhhh. I've posted her a couple time on the pet a day thread so I figured she's had enough attention. Yeah. That's right. (and thank you)
Originally posted by Damn Brit I don't recognise it but it's cool looking, wouldn't mind knowing what it is.
It was a small tree or large shrub, I'm not sure which. I'll go take a picture of the whole thing and the foliage in a bit and post them. They're all over the place here.

what lens did you use for the bee shots?
Thanks. I used the lens I use for pretty much everthing it seems, the Quantaray 70-300. It will do a 1:2 macro at the 300 end. The hard part is holding it steady enough to not be blurry (these are all handheld). Especially while trying to manage a labrador on a leash.
