Broad Bodied Chaser, Old Moor Wetlands, Barnsley, England.
Canon 20D + Sigma 70-300mm APO macro. [70mm @ 3ft]
Although not possessing a dedicated macro lens, small objects sometimes fall within the remit of my Sigma macro zoom.
Such was the case of this dragonfly which landed [and stayed] on a stem only approx 3ft from the footpath.
I believe the overcast conditions [which I prefer for digital photography] helped the situation as the insects were were less mobile than in full sun.
