On A Wing And A Prayer

Today was my long day of commitments but as I walked in the house between two of them I saw two dragonflies flitting around the doorway. Since I knew I would be struggling to find a photo later and I knew that dragonflies often return to the same spot after flying around I took a gamble and ran for the camera. I didn't have to wait long before this one came back and positioned himself more than once in a convenient spot for me to get this photo.
Beautiful detail, especially in the wings.
I think there is a 'translucent' theme going on in one of the challenges.
