Bonjour Lens
Pas si facile que ça ce genre de prise, même si tu trouves qu'elle est trop bruité cela reste une prise très respectable. Difficile de commenter sans l'exif.
Bonne fin de semaine, amicalement Robi

Hello aleks
A valiant attempt at what is a very difficult subject to capture..you have got great detail in the face but unfortunately your shutter speed was to low to capture the wings.
Did you try ai servo instead of manual focus? I have the 30d and find it works very well if you use all the af points.

Hello Aleksander,
Good attempt. I have also tried it a couple of times, but had failed miserably. :) You have been able to capture the head and body with good sharpness.The head is in good focus with very good details. About the wings,being an action shot, i think the movement of the wings gives it a more natural look. I tried to remove the noise using Neat image. I hope you won't mind it.Complements on a good capture.
Regards,
Smitha.

i found it really very difficult shooting a flying bird or insect, you got flying dragonfly, liked the composition and the pov, the upper body part has good sharpness, the wings look nice,
tfs & regards

Bonjour !
Une autre libellule en plein vol et toujours aussi impressionnante. Les couleurs de "l'animal" sont superbes. J'aime beaucoup !

Bonjour Aleks ! L'insecte est super 'sharp' bravo ! Pas facile ces sujets là en vol et au 100-400 ! J'aime bien, à bientôt !

Mario

Hello lens a good composition with nice focus/detail would try AIservo to make it easier 30D should cope ok I tried a 30D with AI and worked well. Nice exposure and light tfs rgds Necip.

bonjour
oui on ne va pas te dire le contraire, il y a du bruit mais un petit passage dans neat image te le supprimerai vite.
toutefois malgré que la libellule soit loin donc petite, il y a la tête qui a de bonnnes couleurs.
allez la prochaine sera mieux, on l' attends!!
bien amicalement et 2 points d' encouragement

Hi Lens,

Well done; you've got to be really quick to catch these things in flight. I agree with others that you're better of with using AIservo - I guess the light wasn't great as you should have been able go a get a quicker shutter speed at f/6.3 at iso800. If that's the case you have done very well indeed. Nice composition and nice background, and yo9u have captured lots of detail in the Migrant Hawker (I think that's what it is).

Kind regards,

Mike

bonjour lens,

c'est vraie qu'il y a du bruit , mais la prise de vue n'est pas facille du tout en plus elle est nette et les couleurs sont belle bravo

Hello Aleks,
The noise does not distract from the fine POV, sharpness, colours and composition of this in-flight shot of amale Aeshna cyanea.
Well done and thanks for sharing,
Best regards, Ivan

Esta aún me gusta más que la anterior que hiciste en vuelo. Hay sensación de movimiento y una buena luz.

Bonsoir Lens
Grande netteté et très belle présentation de cette libellule en plein vol. La couleur du sujet est magnifique.
Bonne journéeet au revoir...JP

Bonjour Aleks,
Pas du tout facile à réaliser mais ca s'améliore, le fond est un peu bruité mais le focus est bon sur l'insecte et les couleurs bien rendues
amicalement

Bonsoir Lens,

Je trouve cette photo un peu bruyante mais ce genre de capture est tellement difficile que je ne meux qu'applaudir.
Les couleurs sont bien saturées et donnent la pêche!

Bonne soirée

Servane

Hello Lens! Amazing shot. Delicate effect. Good capture. Well done!

Hi Lens.
Despite some noise of the image I welcome use ISO 800. Result is perfect and compensates the noticeable grain. Once more excellent rare in-flight dragonfly shot. I also like the great composition, amazing colors and superb BG. Bravo and TFS.
Alexei.

Bonjour Lens,

Effectivement il y a du bruit, mais excellente présentation de ce petit "bolide".

Bravo

Hi Lens

What an amazing image. I love the BG as much as the stunning in-flight capture. Wonderfully sharp details on the head and body and nice motion blur on the wings

Ah! Hunting of flying dragonflies... a real challenge and a lot of fun. I like very much the environment of leaves.

Hi Aleks,
A beautiful capture of this flying dragonfly. Very good composition and details. Although noisy the details on eyes are really good. I also like the framing. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Salut Lens,

certes il y a du bruit, mais le cadrage est bon malgré la difficulté de suivre l'insecte. Belle couleur, et bonne mise au point.

Amicalement

Fred

Bon soir lens,
Superb photo
Bravo
Raimundo

Et voilà, si mes calculs sont exact, il ne te manque qu'un petit point pour avoir 1.000 points tout rond
ca me fait plaisir de te l'offrir
