Nice. Isn't it fun to take picture sof things you can barely see with you naked eye?

These are actually damselflies, the smaller, wispier version of dragonflies.

Hey, Eric - these look good. You use your new lens setup for these? The magnification is quite high :thumbsup:

Careful - you start shooting too many like these and you'll stop taking pictures of people :)

Thanks for the ID Mr. Lamp. Yes, photography opens a different world expecially in wildlife and nature. Who needs to make up science fiction when the strangest stuff is in your backyard :D

Killer Loupe (derived from popular sunglasses Killer Loop), yes it's using my new lens setup. It's a struggle trying to hand hold this 70-200 f/2.8 with the 2x. I probably need practice or I should've gotten the IS version instead. Monopods and tripods are a hassle so far. No, don't think I'll forget people photography....becoming a good people photog is a personal holy grail :D

Paul.....LOL :D....Loupey is good at people photography as well. I've seen it on his website...:D
