DRAGONFLY

A shot that almost didn't happen, and would not have but for the alert vision of Mrs. C. We had walked around the corner of the reflecting pool in yesterday's photo and sat on a bench. Dragonflies buzzed all over the water and she noticed one standing still on the low concrete wall. I had the same wide angle lens on my camera, hardly ideal for a close up, and leaned in as far as I could. What you see here is a tiny, tiny fraction of the original image. Cleaned up with de-noise software for sure, but it says something about the image quality of my camera, a Fujifilm X-T3, and lens, a FF 10-24 mm f4.
