Thanks, Chen
Lots of these around now. Did I shoot this one properly?

Hi Ron
Yes, those are nice shots. I only wish I knew the crane fly fauna of California better. I am saving all of your images into my working file folder and hopefully when I retire from Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh and move to California I will be able to study them then and this could happen in the near future. - Chen

I'll keep at it. (We came here 35+ years ago from Cleveland.)
