    I have been asked for some dragonfly images for a magazine. I sent them a few and wondered which one, if any, you would publish and see if they pick any of your choices. Just pick one if you want to give it a go. Hope it is OK to do this and post it here, but it does have add a poll on this page.

    Thank goodness I'm not that photo editor... I wouldn't be able to choose. #2, #5 & #6 are the three that catch my attention the most. I like the colors on 2 & 5, and the earth tones of #6.

    I had to change the question so I put you down as a 2. You can vote again if you prefer another one.

    I'm not sure which to pick....#4 or #5.
    I guess it will have to be #5 because of it's bright color.

    I don't know why the poll thing isn't working.

    Well if I really HAD to pick one then it would be number four as I think it's the one that shows the best and clearest details of both body and wings of the dragonfly. The clarity of the insect and the shadowing against the diffused background is excellent. However, like Daisy, I'd hate to pick just one photograph to publish.

    OK, the published images are in Nov/Dec issue of the magazine. They used 5 of the 7 images. They did not use images #3 and #6.
