Sort of a chopper
Somatochlora metallica maleIt is quite hard to shoot dragons on flight, but sometimes you can be lucky. This is shot with 300/4 Nikkor using AF-C. I’m not totally happy with the shot, it’s a bit static – some movement would’ve been nice to capture.
I think it’s amazing how anyone can capture these things in mid-flight at all! Give yourself a pat on the back and good luck in the next shoot! ;)
That’s a nice pic indeed! I’ve been trying to capture a similar shot but with no luck so far.
