Description


it took going out to a friend's parent's home for a company annual picnic to get several captures of a dragonfly. This fine specimen literally posed for me for about 8 shots.

Great capture Mike. We were lucky this year there was lots of these around. They feast on mosquitos, so by having lots of these amazing little guys around, it kept the mosquito numbers way down for a change.
