Some Moments with Dragonfly
Hi my photography lover friends, how is going on? It's me here again with some photographs of mine.
Today's topic of photography was based on Dragonfly. Is it good to spend some time with dragonflies? I don't know but I have spent a lot of times in my life with the dragonflies. Not all the time I was friendly. Why? Just keep reading, you would know the answer after reading a few lines more.
Dragonfly!
Dragonfly is one kind of small insect hunters that hunts down small insects like flies, bees , ants etc. It has got large compound eyes in it's head and also got two pairs of wings which are almost transparent with some designs in it. It has got six legs in its body but still it can not walk . It flies to move here and there. And in the legs of this hunter, there are spikes so that it can easily hold something to grip or seat. It's too much clever and flies when you try to catch them. They can see almost every sides by just moving their big head as it moves around. And their tails are bigger like a big antenna.
Most of the time I just played with them friendly. And sometime I let them live by taking away them from the room. I know most of the kids love to catch them and they also tortures this insect without knowing. They does not know how much pain it gets by just holding them into the fingers. If they have the knowledge about that then they would not touched them or play with that. Let's share a childhood evil story of mine with dragonflies.
Unknowingly Tortured Dragonflies!
In my childhood I used to live in the city. And there I used to play with other boys and some of them used to catch fishes. And as I was kid then and there was not much knowledge of torturing things to insects. So I mistakely unknowingly tortured a lot of dragonflies.
When my friends went to catch fishes on the ponds near the house they also caught some small dragonflies like which I have shown at the first image. The used to make the dragonfly as a fishing bait. Or you can say we used that as a trap for the small fishes to catch. I don't knew then about the pain. So I used to help my friends to catch those dragonflies by tapping their wings when they used to sat on the grasses.
And sometime I also used to tie theie tails with the thread and let them fly and catched again and again. But I just did these things as a childplay not for torturing them. But now I know how much pain they feels when they are tortured.and even when the other family member are caught by someone and never returns.
Let's come to my Photography!
First one!
This one was captured from my brother's shop in the market. I was sitting in his shop and talking. Then I saw that one coming and sitting on a mobile stand. Then ai took several photos of this dragonfly.
As you can see I was able to take pictures from too close but the macro mode flashes lights towards the object and when it flashed on the dragonfly then the color reflected from its body so it looks different.
But, did you noticed carefully in it's back side? There is a skull type tattoo designed in it's back. Which looks like a head of human. I took close shots for you guys to understand. Hope you noticed!
Now comes the second one!
This one entered in my room and was flying near the lights. And it fly to the roof side. Then it fly to a cloth and I captured then.
And this one also entered in my room another day and I took it on a little stick to make a photography if it. You can see how carefully and clearly it was captured.
And that's the last one. But it was captured before any of the up here. It just came into my room throw the windows while I was studying amd it sat on my finger. And as you guys know I don't miss any chance of photography so, I just took picture with my phone.
That's all for today and hope you guys enjoyed at least my photography today. And all pictures are captured by my phone camera.
