Perfect macro, Jimbob. The details are great. Can even see that it's wearing new spectacles, lol.
Good work, mate!

Regards, Cornelius.

Jimbob - This dragonfly is wondering what you did with the flower that was there the other day! lol Nice bokeh, with excellent color contrast between subject and background. The lighting angle is perfect. Good work! Thad

Wow!! Your backyard still has green in it, mine is all dead from heat and drought. Jim, the detail is amazing in this photograph.
Like Thad, great lighting angle.

Looks like a knight in shining armor only it is daytime JimboB. Has a ghostly look about it. Clarity is very good.
Super post.

Now, if I were a dragonfly, that's where I would set down. I have to commend you, Jimbob, and taking such pride in your backyard and keeping up with the weeding. Great shot of the dragonfly and better shot of this glorious bit of vegetation that reminds us that god works in mysterious ways.

I'd call him 'silver wings' cause the wings look silvery in the light. We backyard people wait for the photos to come to us!lol
He is nice and sharp, Jimbob.
