    That's nice Brian. It was co-operative enough with its wing to fall within your DOF (always hard with Dragon Flies from this angle) and its made for a very nice image.

    little known dragtonfly lore: if you spot one one resting you can get about a meter away with luck. If she flies away there is a 50 50 chance she will return if you stay still.
