Tiger Moth?

The double wings and angle of this dragonfly reminds me of the Tiger Moth planes.

With just days to go until we leave for holidays I am still trying to organise our itinerary. The ten day forecast takes us to one day before we arrive in Iceland and the temperature will be 4C-8C! We are going to freeze!

[Denise Wood]

Fantastic capture :) have a wonderful trip!

[Camille Bisson]

what a beautifully composed shot with the light glistening off the wings as it is. so gorgeous. great timing and details, too.

[Simply Amanda]

Super timing and shot. Iceland!!! Awesome. Is that where the glaciers are?

[Katie]

Awesome shot! Well done you!

[Sheralee S]

@amandal Yes, lots of glaciers Amanda. I'm sure after your winters you are thinking "toughen up buttercup" haha.

[Simply Amanda]

@bella_ss Cold is cold. It's hard to adjust to from not cold. You'll get used to it more in a few day:).

[Ann T.]

[Kane Arlow]

Fantastic shot. That doesn't sound too cold. That's what it can get to down here during winter. Saturdays low here will be 4c. :)

[Sheralee S]

@karlow75 Yeah I know Kane, I'm a sook, lol. I'm just hoping it will be sunny.

This is a super shot... I knew you had a trip coming up, but didn't know it was to Iceland! How exciting... I am looking forward to seeing it through your lens. I have heard that "there is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing." ;) Safe travels.

@onewing @sidecar we don't need too much here at all but I was happy to find some thermals yesterday in our local Target.

[Sheralee S]

@rosiekerr I like that quote and I'm sure it's true, hopefully I am ready for Iceland's very changeable weather. Very excited anyway 😄

I love the colours of the background, and how this lovely dragonfly is perched on a pretty flower. Wow, Iceland! That is so exciting. I can't wait to see your photos.

[vstap]

[bkb in the city]

Great capture

[Emiko]

Wow, so beautiful and simple!! FAV!

[Terrie]

You are going to be great at newborn shoots. Love what you have shown us so far. Very natural style and tones.
We are headed north to Cairns and Cooktown on the 3rd June. 2 weeks of sunshine hopefully. Your Iceland trip will be amazing. Take plenty of photos. They will be so different from our landscapes. Travel safely Sheralee.

[Sheralee S]

@teodw You should get some lovely weather around then Terrie! Have you been there before, I'm thinking you might have mentioned you have. We went to Cooktown for the first time last Oct/Nov. I loved it but probably won't ever return. Are you flying into Cairns?

Thanks for the lovely comment :)

[Sam]

This is awesome Sheralee! FAV

[Dianne]

Amazing timing and clarity.

[Poppo Livy]

Great capture Sheralee. Charters Towers to Iceland? Nah. You wont notice any difference :-)

[Sheralee S]

@terryliv Hehe, could probably just pack a few shorts and thongs hey Poppo?

[Terrie]

@bella_ss Yes, flying into Cairns. Stay 2 days then bus to Cooktown. There for the long-weekend festival. 5days in all then back to Cairnns by bus and there for 8 days before we fly home. So looking forward to getting some sunshine 😊

[Sheralee S]

@teodw It sounds perfect, definitely the place to be in Winter :)

[Denise (lyndemc)]

Super capture! He couldn't have landed in a more perfect place. Nice of him to stay put so you could get the picture.

[alia_801]

Beautiful capture - lovely detail! I can't wait to see pics from your trip too!

[Lee-Ann]

Amazing capture. Im so jealous of your trip....cant wait to see your pics aswell.

[Dione Giorgio]

Super shot. Fav. Enjoy.

[David Peckett]

Lovely image - how on earth did you persuade it to stay still long enough?

[Sheralee S]

@davidspeck Just a lucky moment David. I know they are usually so quick but this one kept coming back to this same flower so I kept shooting and eventually had one keeper :)

[Paula W]

Love how the light is shining on the wings, and the uncluttered background really makes him stand out. Super title too. You must be so excited about your trip, remember 'there is no such thing as bad weather only unsuitable clothing' :)

[Sheralee S]

@paulaw I hadn't heard that saying before but @rosiekerr said the same thing. I think it's great advice.

[Margo]

Clever capture

[Jane Morley]

Superb shot!

[Nina Ganci]

amazing details and capture,
fav

[Nicole]
