Is there any way to lure them to alight, like one can
sometimes lure butterflies to alight on a piece of fruit or some sweetened
water?
I've found the best time to photograph dragonflies has been in the early
morning before the sun rises enough to warm/wake them up - they're almost
immobile at that point. I've also had the best luck, in Michigan to seek
them out late August/early September.

WOW! Great catch, and well rendered. I love the sharp focus on the
sitting damselflies contrasted with the motion blur of the wings on the
flying one.
I saw a few dragonflies or damselflies in the garden around our pool this
weekend, but they were too flighty, and I could never get close enough
even
to attempt a shot. Is there any way to lure them to alight, like one can
sometimes lure butterflies to alight on a piece of fruit or some sweetened
water?
