Flying Dragonfly

I was on my kayak and tried to photograph dragonflies. These little bit bigger ones didn't land at all. They just flew over the river. Sun was shing on the river but the background was in shadow. I just had to guess the exposure and use manual setting. Then when it came close enough I manually focused so that I could put the AF point over it and use continuous focusing to take care of the rest. This was best of about 60 shots.
