Wow, I've seen a lot of these, but they never sit still to get a good look at, much less a photo -- you got a great one!

WOW!! you have captured the detail magnificently. Its amazing how they survive because they look so fragile and look like they could tear at any moment!! Beautiful photo :)

I can see an elf riding that! (Not a shy elf either..) Ive recently done a giant moth pic so maybe I can move on to dragonflies etc. Great picture. Dave

Great shot of a very vivid Dragonfly. We do not have any solid red colored species where I live. There is nothing subtle about this one, lol. I would love to see for for real. Thanks for sharing. Lee
