Not a lot of time lately. The weather is warming here now. Here's an early Dragon from the bush, by the water - where else.

Lovely shot, pity about that expletive deleted reed stem. How many times has that happened to me!

No pity Dave, it's just part of the picture to me.

Really nice detail on the face Mark. it is amazing how they hold on to something small like that and than shoot off at any angle like a bullet.

It's a captivating shot but one thing bothers me - why is that wing edge, top left, in focus? Do the wings come forwards that much? From the perspective, it looks as though it's going just sideways..

Yes Doug, they are fascinating creatures.

Chris, the wings do come forward plus the dragon is at an angle so that side is even more forward.

nice shot Mark, to bad about the out of focus grass right in front of his face though

Hey Jim, as I see it that's just part of the pic. When there are so many dragon P'sOV this is just one more.
