Just when I thought I was done with Dragons for awhile. One comes along that's a different colour. Actually I was trying to get two small blue dragonflies in the same shot. Then this large dragon came alone and ran the little ones off. I never did get that shot.

He looks quite a sturdy bloke - no wonder the others flew off. Nice capture again Ed. The colours and clarity first class as usual.

Agree with Raj's comment above Ed, as I can understand that the small blue dragons must have been frightened to deadth when this 'iron eater' came near, lol.
Thanks for another very good dragon post my friend!
Regards, Cornelius.

You have so many colorful dragons around there. You have captured them beautifully, too. You do an excellent job with the close ups. I have yet to see a dragon here. I think they are avoiding me. Wonder picture again, Ed.

You are becoming a dab hand capturing shots of these little creatures. This is lovely - the clarity, detail, lighting and colour. Well done!

I would run too
if I were little and blue.

Just a great shot and you have captured so many good ones of these miniature copters Huck. The detail is amazing. I hope there are no security breaches here.

Now I know where all the dragonflies went to ... I haven't seen a single one for a week now. Wonderful detail ... it's amazing how strong their legs are to maintain a pose like that. Very well done Ed.
