Wow it must be the month of the dragonfly, it seems there is an abundance of them at the moment. This is another great capture and what a lovely colour he is. Nice detail too. You did a great job Chas. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Dave.

The blue in the dragonfly really pops against the stone. Excellent focus and sharp details.

That is a great shot. I can never get them to stay still. I think the ones in my yard are on steroids.
