Techo,
Thanks for your details re: stalking the dragonflies. I have wondered many times just how these shots are pulled off. We dont have many dragon flies close to where i live but it is rare to see them sit still long enough to take a picture...

Congrats on a nice finish and a fine shot to boot!

P.S. I want/need that 100/2.8 lens ;)

I believe this is an Owl Finch. I looked the other day (thanks by the way for your write up on the dragonfly macro shot)in my bird book and found nothing -but was in a pet shop today 09/09/06 and they had them there - same spotting on wings, same colour breast with 2 dark rings and small blackish cap on head. Thanks again
Lyta

Congrats on top 10! This is great. As a macro lover I have a question - Did you add an extra lens, reverse one, extension tube,close up filter? I can't get my Macro 100mm to do that unless I add something. Very interested in what if anything you used.
Thanks and much success.
