Re: PESO: emperor dragonfly

Thanks Ann. When I was a young boy I had only 8 pictures 6 x9 cm on the Agfa roll in my box camera and then I had to save money again for the next roll. That fact will always have an impact on my way of shooting. Henk Op 2021-07-20 om 18:56 schreef ann sanfedele: I like them all equally..  as

Re: PESO: emperor dragonfly

I like them all equally..  as to "producing dozens of unuseful images " along the way.. noting really wasted as long as you have enuff room on your card when you are shooting..  one of the true benefits of digital photography. Glad you were spared the terrible floods, Henk. On 7/19/2021 9:29

Re: PESO: emperor dragonfly

Thanks Dave and Larry. Larry, the camera (K-70) is fairly good, however the lens (55-300 PLM), is very good for this type of medium distance tele work. I bought this camera specially for this lens so I don't have to fit it on the K-1. Saves a lot of weight as well to keep in the air. Henk Op

Re: PESO: emperor dragonfly

I should think it would have to agree in gender, number and case with anax, which has a masculine ending. It is not in my Latin dictionary so i googled it. It appears to be an ancient Greek word for a tribal leader or warlord, so a similar meaning. Αναξ doesn’t appear in my modern Greek

Excellent, especially the one of the dragonfly in flight. That is a good, sharp image with great color rendition and a pleasing oof background. Dan Matyola *https://tinyurl.com/DJM-Pentax-Gallery * On Mon, Jul 19, 2021 at 4:16 AM David Mann wrote: >

PESO: emperor dragonfly

In the coast area we didn't get the heavy rain with flooding as in Germany, Belgium and southern part of the Netherlands. However, it has been a wet spring and early summer. Butterflies are very late, whereas dragonflies are abundantly present. I catched some female emperor dragonflies laying
