Beautiful timing and catch. Like the expression in the shots/eyes.

Looks like they are just enjoying the sun and themselves.

WOW - things around us are totally different w/ macro!! I use to be terrified of dragonflys when I was little - now I think they are beautiful.

I need to get busy. I only have a 60mm - guess i need something more powerful.

Well, photobitz, I THINK I do. LOL

Thanks all very much for the extremely kind words on this very fortunate capture. I too consider it a rare sighting, to find 3 sets side by side. Thanks very much. :D :D :D :D :D
