On a walk down to the lake yesterday I spotted this neat looking Dragonfly. I was actually trying to get a shot of a butterfly when I found this guy sitting on a leaf watching me. >> Thanks to all for comments <<

This is some photo Huck. I think it would make a great contest entry. The patterns on the wings are beautiful.

Excellent color and detail here - I like the little smirk he seems to have on his face. Like he knows something you don't. Did you fall in the lake after you took the shot? ;)

What a magnificent Dragonfly!! Have for sure never seen anything that pretty, the design on those delicate wings, wow!
Yup, I agree, I think he was doing his "balancing act" just for you, 'cause he knew you were going to make him famous! Did you know there are actually thousands of tiny 'lenses' on his eyes?!!!! A very beautiful photo. Bravo!! Verena
