Red Dragonfly on a Green Leaf

Taken at Millers Marsh. The red really popped against the green, making this one pretty easy to spot.
Thanks for the suggestions for making the bread crust crisp on yesterday's photo. I'm going to try brushing/spraying with water and using ice cubes on the tray. I'd poured boiling water into a tin below it, so am hoping the new combination does the trick! Many thanks for the comments and suggestions.

Good shot- his red body pops nicely against the green leaves.

What a different position for his wings - neat looking dragonfly

[Jane Pittenger]

Beautiful sharpness, light, detail, bokeh...not a fan of the frame though

[Marnie]

I must echol others in saying how unusual the wing positions are, almost looks like it's worried about falling off. Great closeup/macro, I like the colours and bokeh.
