I mentioned before that the dragonflies at our pond rarely seem to land anywhere, making them hard to photograph.

It’s still a difficult task though as they hover for a few seconds at most. But if I am quick with the camera and the auto-focus actually locks on in time, I can get a few shots off before the target moves on. The other day I sat there for about an hour during which I saw lots of hovering episodes. Out of several hundred photos taken, a handful were reasonably sharp.
