Smiling Dragonfly?

[jdloniak]

I was playing around in the backyard yesterday and this little dragonfly kept flying around in front of me and landing there, as if it wanted its picture taken. So I did, it looks as if it is smiling. It let me get up to it as close as my focal point would allow and never flew away. I reached out to make it fly away to get a in flight picture and it jumped on my finger and just stayed there letting me take pictures. Very cool experience.

What a Great Opportunity! The Dragon Flys are out in force here in our part of South Korea now. Thousands are flying around and this weekend I hope to get out and capture a few shots myself. They do look like they smile at you, heres a link to one I took close up.
