It was much sunnier today, which made me feel slightly smug
when Mat sent me a text to tell me he was sat in the sunshine at the side of
Lake Geneva. Although it was sunnier today, the area surrounding the lake was
still flooded and it was incredibly soft underfoot.
I enjoyed using the telephoto lens yesterday, so I took it
with me again today. I sat down on a bench at the lakeside. While watching the
wildlife go past I saw a dragonfly. It flew away before I had chance to take a
picture so I decided to follow it.
When it landed I took my chance. I’m glad I had the
telephoto lens on as it made it easier to take the shot without scaring it. I’m
surprised at the amount of detail that has been retained even though I didn’t
use a macro lens. I love the amount of detail that you can see in the wings,
and how you can see the hairs on the dragonfly.
I’m really impressed with this picture, and it’s encouraged
me to use the telephoto lens again. I’m really enjoying having the blog to
myself!
