Copper reflection

Best viewed large, if you will.
Dogs were in being groomed so I got to go to a trail I don't usually do. Lots of dragonflies, damselflies, butterflies, turtles and birds! Loved it. This dragonfly caught my eye several times as the sun caught its wings and they sparkled coppery. Not sure of the type...my book is limited in these.
Thanks for looking and commenting....always appreciated.

Instant FAV! Look at those golden wings! Fantastic capture, Lynn! I smell a PP here! I would love to pin it, but I know. =)

@marlboromaam Thanks so much...I am probably just a paranoid nerd, but can't get myself around all that stuff!

That is a wow capture if I ever saw one. Look at how golden beautiful the wings are. Amazing. I've seen gorgeous dragonflies, but none that were golden like this!!!

[Robyn]

And I love the blurred background, too. Just SOOO great!

Unbelievable, like something out of a fairy tale!

@lynnb It's okay. I understand. I don't want to pin a pic if it makes the photog uncomfortable.

I really like the focus on your dragonfly and that you can make out the forms of the weeds behind it. I especially like the highlights on its wings!

I totally love your dof on this one, Lynn ... gorgeous clarity on the dragonfly! Great capture and lighting. Was it a windy day? He looks like he's really hanging on there!!

@karenann There was a light breeze but the stock he was on was fine so moved easily. Thanks so much for your kind comments Karen.
