Dragonfly
I very seldom shoot macro, and I'm terribly lacking in my knowledge of dragonfly's and damselflies. I don't know if this one is a male or female.

If I was forced to get rid of all but one lens, the Canon 100-400 II would be the one I'd keep. I started using the series 1 way back around 2003, and went to the 100-400 series 2 as soon as it came out. I find it to be unusually sharp for a zoom lens.

This is a beautiful looking damsel fly, Lee! The colors are iridescent looking. Nice work.
