i took these at burnaby lake, and i got so many great shots, that i basically nerdgasmed after going through all of my pictures. and then i started swearing for the next week, cause both legs were covered in bug bites - at least a dozen per leg; i still have the scars.

i. hate. this. fucking. thing. because, out of the aforementioned dozen bug bites per leg i got on the trip, at least 8 each were from photoing this goddamn thing - it was blowing around, which made it hard to get it in focus. i actually have 2 shots that're pretty good, this one here where the head's in focus, and another one where the body's in focus; when i learned how, i focus stacked them in photoshop. i apparently didn't upload that version and am wayyy too lazy to now, but basically, focus stacking is when you have 2 (or more - some people use over 10+ images for just one end picture) shots of something with different areas in focus, and then merge them in photoshop so that they're all in focus. like, if i had a head of something in focus in one shot and its body in another, if i stacked them then both the head and body would be in focus in the end result. pretty cool shite.

| i love these 2 shots, mostly cause a) dragonflies are damn badass and b) i'd been wanting shots of them due to a), and these were my first ever, where they actually sat the fuck down long enough for me to even look at them twice. i have vague memories of seeing dragonflies have sex midair at a soccer camp when i was a kid. good times. |

i saw this thing and was waiting for it to land somewhere so i could get a shot of it. and what dyou know, it lands on my shorts.
