I like that I can see the texture of the siding the dragonfly is resting on. The details in this shot are great.

Description The Great Pondhawk is a member of the common skimmer family (family Libellulidae).Dragonflies in this large family have brightly colored bodies, 3/4-2 1/2" (18-64 mm) long, that are shorter than the wingspan, which is usually 1-4" (25-102 mm). The wings often have bands or spots. In some species males and females are different colors. Often the male does not attain full color until a few days after emergence. the short, squat naiads, to 1 1/4" (33 mm) long, inhabit shallower, warmer waters than naiads of other families and tend to be more active, maturing more rapidly. excellent capture. early mornings are the best time to take fotos of dragonflies before they warm up

Very good capture erland

Agreed, very good capture. Is this a tad overshapened or is it the bg? Fine detail and very nice macro. Thanks for this one.
