CHIN'S NATURE CORNER ~ PHOTO GALLERY ~ DRAGONFLIES & DAMSELFLIES PAGE 1
Dragonflies and Damselflies
DRAGONFLIES and damselflies are difficult to photograph because they
have good eyesight that can detect even the slightest movement. It's just not easy to sneak
up on them with a camera. The two groups of insect belong to the Order Odonata.
Here are some species I have managed to capture on film. Sorry, I'm
not able to provide the names of all the species shown here. Where names are given,
the species have been identifed for me ~ from my colour slides ~ by a dragonfly enthusiast.
This is not the best way to identify species. If you find any mistakes here, please let
me know so that I can put things right. You can send me an
email or leave a comment.
In recent times, I have posted images on the Facebook forum, Butterfly and Macro Singapore, and
those were identified by Tai LA.
