How Do You Make a Dragon Fly?

My wife discovered this guy outside on our lemon tree today. He was pretty accommodating and allowed me to locate him to the side of the house where the light was better. Check the download for wing detail...

Nice captures! Enjoyed by a San Antonio boy.

Thanks, UTMike! (Is the UT for Utah or the University of Texas?)

Headed back to San Antonio from west Texas yesterday. I was trying to get here before the sunset was gone and I thought I was going to be too late, but mother nature cooperated!

Best mouse or device for photo editing.

I usually use a wireless mouse on a mouse pad that provides a slight bit of friction. That said, my Lenovo ThinkPad laptop also has a touch screen and a built-in rechargeable stylus (the included software is by Wacom). It works better than the mouse, but I usually default to the mouse because that's what I'm accustomed to anyway.

You are saying supermoon, if you are talking about the moon on Jan 31 2018, it is not a superoon, it is a Blue moon,so called because it is the second full moon of this month. Regards, Alfie.

According to NASA, it is not only a blue moon, but also a supermoon and a blood moon if you are in an area where the lunar eclipse affects the observed color.

Lots of good information at https://www.space.com/39208-super-blue-blood-moon-guide.html

Good luck to all trying to capture it!
