I know, I know - how many drogonflies can the viewer see without becoming violent? You're probably at the threshold right now, but this little guy was so gorgeous that I just *had* to photograph him! I suppose dragonflies are the low-hanging fruit of the insect world. Anyway I hope you like it!

This is a stunningly detailed YADI you've captured, Regmar - right down to his shiny blue crash helmet! Excellent choice of background that lends emphasis to this winged warrior. Far from invoking violence, I actually find your image very calming. Nice work!

What a beautiful dragonfly..those colours are just lovely! And Ijust think that you are SOOO fortunate to even find these pretties...and take their photos. I see one now and then but heck!! they are way too fast for me!! So I love it when you post them and I for sure never tire of them my friend!! Verena

I agree, this is stunning. Gorgeously detailed capture. I love the simple comp and colors, draws the eye more to the details.

Regmar dear,
I like the presentation so much.
Makes me wonder how you guys do it - catching them ever-moving animals steady !
I protest - in Poland the insects are much more lively [I guess ..]LOL

Nice shot and I love the dark background...even with his dark tipped wings he doesn't get lost in it :)
