The small thumbnails don't do many of them justice. Click the sides of the
photos to move forward and back.
Nice collection.
Thanks!
I especially enjoyed the sculptures
Ah, I see there is one that really should be there missing, and other candidates. The angel pointing up is atop a grave
in huge, beautiful Greenwood Cemetery. A common trope, angel pointing to Heaven, but almost all the pointing fingers
have weathered or broken off, so there are all these angels apparently shaking their fists at Heaven. 😁 The dancers are
in the columbarium there. It took lots of post to make them stand out, but I think it looks pretty natural.
and the dragonfly.
The light in the eyes makes it, I think.
Dragonfly tip, many of them return to the same place, in the same pose, over and over again. They are "hawking" tiny
insects, and have chosen a good vantage point. (Hummingbirds and some raptors do the same.) So prefocusing on the spot
just left and waiting a few moments will often result in a good shot.
Other time, species situations, they just don't stop.
Flying Dragon Moose
