- I visited Thursley National Nature Reserve on 3 occasions in the summer of 2024. Only on the last occasion did I begin to see the Dragonflies and Damselflies that this site is noted for. You can also usually see Hobbies swooping to catch these insects but this year has been the exception when I have visited.

Amazing footage!!! A big LIKE from me. I'm a new friend here. A birder from Singapore. Have a nice day and stay connected.👍🔔
Many thanks - I've just been enjoying some of the more exotic wildlife in your channel! 👍
Hello, a nice video of you and very well done!! Greetings Gijs
Thanks Gijs 😀
Very nice!
Thanks! 😄
I have been photographing dragon- and damsel-flies for a year or two, but on my more limited Lumix ZX100. With a bit of stalking I can nearly fill the frame, but I might well get a longer lens such as yours. I have seen videos on snapping dragonflies in flight, which is way beyond my skill, though I have got shots of dragonflies taking off by using a pre-burst function. Nice video, thanks.
Thanks John 😀. I didn't need the longer lens for the dragonflies at Thursley. As long as you keep fairly still they are willing to land close by. We'd both need very different cameras to photograph dragonflies in flight and even then you'd need a lot of skill and patience!
Such a lovely place and narrantion, and photos are also just great. Thank you for sharing this, hope the next videos won't keep us waiting!💕
Many thanks - much appreciated. Decent video and photos are proving a bit elusive at present - so the next video may be a while!
Hi Peter, your video, photos and narrative are brilliant.
I’d enjoy it more if the music wasn’t so loud in places. The flute is clipping in the intervals.
Other than that, thoroughly enjoyable 👏
Thanks for the feedback - getting the sound just right is proving a bit tricky. I keep experimenting to try to improve this.
@@honky014definitely not hard with the right software
That was an excellent video Peter loved the images brilliant narration as always a very enjoyable film❤ regards Dave
Thanks again Dave - much appreciated 😃
re: 1:30 - I suggest looking up 'diffraction', as that is what you are seeing. Each sensor size / resolution has a limit after which closing the aperture makes the image softer. With P950 and similar cameras, this limit is already close to, or even beyond, the wide open aperture.
Thanks for the information. I was under the misapprehension that I may have caused some blur in my narrower aperture tests by disturbing the camera when pressing the shutter, made worse by the slower shutter speed. It looks like I can go with the widest aperture allowable for most of my photography with the P950. 👍
Wow that's an experience, sound all over the place, can't hear you speaking at all over that bloody horrible flute
Try and balance the sound of your voice and zero music it's just distracting at best
i think if he turned down the music and put his voice on center (i hear his voice coming only from the left headphone) it would be better
