Song Sung Blue

This week I decided (when possible) to focus on insect shots. I actually took the camera off of auto or creative mode and used shutter priority mode to take this. I'm still trying to understand how it all works together. I'm so thankful for our lake where the dragonflies are always eager to help!
Beautiful! I love that color!

@orangecrush Thanks Jerry, I tweaked it a little trying to get the dragonfly to stand out. I appreciate your comments and for taking a look.

@shannew Thanks Shanne - for stopping by and for your encouragement. I have taken shots of this guy before ( well maybe not this exact one ) and I never could get the detail to pop. Manual settings really do help - go figure :)
