i don't know that much about dragonflies, but they seem to be getting brighter as the summer goes by.

Wow, those last two shots are pretty amazing. I like how their eye is sort of split. And they have a big nose :D Well, I'm calling it a nose anyway. And he looks like he's smiling! (I'm calling it a he for todays purposes lol).

Very nice dragons and you right, very colorful. We have them all over this year but they are so shy that getting near one is impossible.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.

Great captures. I know how difficult dragons are to shoot.
