That was super neat.  The dragonfly looked like a tiny helicopter buzzing about.  I also enjoyed the bee and butterfly on you zinia.  Really cool.  Thanks for sharing.

Wow! That was a great video. I want to know how much you paid that dragonfly to keep returning to center stage?that was cool. The music goes well with the waterfall sounds in the background.

Very nice footage. Thanks for doing that one. :)

Thanks all? :)

Rocomon , you are right that the music goes well with the waterfall, but to be honest I borrowed that idea from another video that I watch before. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. ;)
You'll hear that same Enya music at the beginning of this video entitled Tony's pond. And this one (waterfalls)
There are several interesting and well done pond videos on this web site (Clarkekoi.com)
As for the dragonfly returning to center stage,,,,,? that wasn't the problem with the little bugger, the problem was getting him to hover in one spot for long enough to get any decent video footage. That and trying to stop myself from following him with the camera. Even though I knew I couldn't really capture him by trying to follow him with the camera and when I did try I would just end up getting blurry unusable video. Still, I kept instinctively trying to follow him as he flew past the screen.? :D
