100° and all is well

It's not often that we hit 100 degrees in northern new england. when it does, what else can we do but go out and shoot. This is a 2 shot blend - one for the dragonfly and and for the the blowing grass background.

Shot with a 70-200 f4 on a 40d.

Really nice comp here, and the grasses give a wonderful texture-like BG.
Hard to tell about sharpness with a small image - The DF and perch look perhaps a little over-sharpened.

A very nice DF image with an artsy bg. I like the blend. The DF and perch looks great. :toast:
