I think it's a dragonfly And darn well captured. Nice job.
I'd ID it as a Halloween Pennant drgonfly, too. Excellent capture. You might be interested in this free pdf from Chicago's Field Museum of Natural History:

It covers NE Illinois, but I'd bet there is a pretty large overlap in the range of the species, and Ohio isn't too far away.
