Walked the park today and I was able to lay down on the path and get eye-to-eye with this dragon fly. I can only imagine what the people in the park thought seeing me laying flat on the path.

Super portrait! Hey, I took photos of the frost on a neighbor's car once; we all have stories

Very nice, Gary. I like the "down on his level" approach you used.

I think we have all done that, I did it once in a cemetery which did bring forth some looks.

Be careful. You don’t want to lay there too long.

You are reasonable safe so long as you don't do it near a newly dug hole.

Nice! Consider the positions we all have to take in this hobby as valuable excercise and a practice in humility.

Knee and elbow pads are now on my "things to carry with me" list.

People see me and think me wierd? They are probably right. Next problem for me would be getting back up. Nice shot.
