I saw a spot for some pictures of the Rock Dragon I had with me & had it pose for awhile. Of course, I had to call him "Rusty."

Those are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!! :love:

(how do you manage to always take such great pics!?)

The location was a metal trestle that was related to this structure: B & O Railroad Viaduct This is what one of the original photos looks like before any processing.

Yeah, that could be it. I mostly hate taking pics. And I think I hate even more to work them... and my method is trial and error  :-[

The pics with the hydras are wonderful too  :love:  (I still didn't get that black one, but I WILL!)

You have a real knack for posing dragons.

Do you watch Game of Thrones?

No, I don't. I don't watch TV & have never seen an episode, though it seems many of my friends are into the show. Isn't it all based on some works of fiction? Ridiculous - dragons aren't fictional.  :P

So far there are about 6000 pages worth of story which have been converted into about 64 episodes. So just a small story really.

Can't say I watch a lot of tv either, at least not tv channels. GoT definitely is worth watching. Not a lot of dragon stuff in it but the stuff coming out lately is awesome.
Not for the squeemish though:

Those red dragons are multiplying before my eyes... First 4, then 5, then 8! They seem very bad-tempered beasts, snarling at one another all the time, it's a wonder they manage to procreate at all!

Great pics again, JLM, lovely settings, imaginative posing (those red dragons look like they are actually writhing in your pictures!). As you said, having fun taking the pics is an important ingredient for success.

Keep 'em coming!
