World Class Photographer to Present Dragonfly Program at Hobbs State Park |
|
|
While wandering through Zilker Park Botanical Gardens in Austin Texas, Robert Thomas was photographing flowers and wildlife. Suddenly, a beautiful bright red dragonfly landed in front of him. Stunned at the beauty and vibrancy of its color, he shot a photo from about 15 feet away. That was all it took for him to be totally fascinated by these creatures. Robert Thomas has spent the last six years travelling and photographing odonates (dragonflies). His photographs have graced the covers of numerous field guides. His collection of photographs contains many very rare species. As Thomas puts it, “It’s a matter of being in the right place at the right time, and a little good luck and know-how.” Bring the family and join Robert Thomas for a colorful, unique, and exciting program all about dragonflies, and how to photograph them. When: 2:00 p.m., Saturday, June 24, 2017 Where: Hobbs State Park – Conservation Area’s visitor center located on Hwy 12 just east of the Hwy 12/War Eagle Road intersection.
