    Dragon flies

    Hi Folks. Went on a Hike today with my Son Daniel. He was shooting the K1OD with Tamron 18-250mm with a B+W polarizer.... ''He took'' these the images of the Dragon flies and I took the images of him...I was shooting film most of the day... I helped him with the crops and some PP work, but these are his images, his composition...The kid is pretty good... Here is the photographer.

    Daniel - those are wonderful photos of the dragonfly. You did a fine job! The photos are sharp and the color is very good. I didn't realize how good looking and colorful dragonflies are. They would be difficult to catch - you had to work at it. Great job.

    Happy Father's Day Javier - this was a great idea to spend time with your son on Father's Day weekend. It looks like Daniel enjoys photography as much as his Dad! Nice looking son.

    Re: Dragon flies

    Terrific set of photo's from your son. So when are you going to get some lessons from him?

    What's he planning on doing for a living, Photographer?

    These are fantastic! I'm so impressed with your son. Most adults cannot achieve such clarity.
    It's not blurry. It's bokeh.

    Give Daniel a big ata-boy form me. These are great. I wish I had dragons in my portfolio that would measure up to these.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??
