This Four-spotted Chaser is taking a well earned rest from being constantly hassled and chased by the Emperor Dragons.

The background in this shot helps to give a sense of context with an indication of the pond appearing at the bottom.

Love the first one. The BG really compliments the dragonfly and the red adds a splash of colour.

Thanks Robin. I've been admiring your work in flickr and I love the black and white dragonfly on your Facebook. Unfortunately, I couldn't get your website to load.
