The missus uses a Sony NEX-7, Sony 18-200mm plus Raynox M-150 :

Photos don't do the detail visible justice, especially on the nymphs. All hand held too.

Mr Goo,

here is the dragonfly from Assynt that we were speaking about in the shop the other day. It is not perfect but hand held macro with a hangover up in the hills is not easy.

Iain,
as a good Kincorth loon who has emigrated to the outskirts of Stoney, that hurts.

Four-Spotted Chaser Eddie. Ben showed me a photo of a Golden-ringed from Assynt from a few years ago. Great habitat for them.

L,
i bow to your knowledge on species of Dragonflies but you are right the are lots of them in Assynt must be a great place for them to live and breed, also a great palce to fish for troots. rool onMay and june and travelling back up there. I do alot of spring salmon fishing but if I was forced to make a choice the brownie fishing would win hands down every time.

Eddie.
