Dragonfly

Was just out mowing the lawns and this fellow seemed to be following me around, I thought he would be gone by the time I when in and got camera....but no, he waited for me, love the gold colour on the wings

What a gorgeous shot. I can't wait for dragonfly season to see if I can get a couple of decent shots.

[Suse♡]

Wow, fantastic close up and focus!

[Keith Porteous]

I have a local haunt that is replete with Dragonflies and there is no question that they are growing used to me. I can get right up to them when at first I couldn't get a shot off from 3 metres! This is a great capture with a nice background!
