Snapshots, Wanderings, Whatever Random shots July 6, 2008 laurahinnj 6 Comments Random bluet damselfly on random fern I’m too lazy to ID…Random famous-author-type met in Bloomingdale Bog. I think he’s Allen Barlow of NJ Odes.com.
Love the random damselfly… almost as much as Allen’s len. Yep, pure lens envy… but knowing how heavy that set-up is, maybe not. ;c)
Hee hee….I didn’t know that Odopterists actually used those big nets!And just how much would a lens like the one he is packing really cost? Sheesh!
I have that net too! Looks like a Variable Dancer AKA Violet Dancer – Argia fumipennis violacea. It’s the only purple damsel around the northeast.
Jayne: Yeah.. would have to break the bank for it, probably. Dr. Know: I thought it was a butterflynet at first. Susan: Patrick: Is it purple, yeah?

I have the same BioQuip net as your random encounter. I don’t have the 20 lb. lens, however.

And to think that I met him in Bloomingdale Bog …. Dr. Seuss, sort of!!
