Common Green Darner in flight
After some difficulty I finally got some decent shots! I even had a Karen come and demand to know what I was doing. These are uncropped and shot handheld. I'm surprised their wings froze so well. This first one is 1/800s and the second 1/1250s.
I saw a decent amount of these green darners today. I tried to catch some getting jiggy with it, but that flopped. They're an elite insect IMO. Throughout their lives they're both master swimmers and master flyers.
Those are impressive shots.
Elite AF plus they kill mosquitos, and amazing shots btw
