Captured at the Calender Gardens, with the Canon 450D and canon ef 70-200mm f/4L lens,

Did some postwork adj. and cropped.

I tried lightening this some, but I liked this one a tad more.

Thanks for your comments.

A very good shot of the dragon fly Sandi. I can see the sharp focus on the wings.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

From pale blues on its wings to bright green background all the colors are beautiful. Great composition, as well. I agree with you Sandi, this is better then other two.

Can't understand how you got that dragonfly so far to pose this way for you, lol.
Excellent close up, Sandi.

It's gorgeous, but with so much space at the top it reduces the impact, Sandi. It's about twice what it needs.
