Description
It's amazing how long I tried to get a shot of a dragonfly without success; then all of a sudden I got that first one and it was like he went out and told all his dragonfly friends to land in my yard and pose for me!... LOL. I have a lot more to share too, I hope you don't get sick of them.
(I tried to identify the species of dragonflies, but I wasn't successful. I think a book may have been more helpful, instead of the on-line pictures?) I have never been much of a bug person, I usually go the opposite direction when I see a bug. But now... The camera takes precedence... and gives me courage! lol!
Thank you so much for taking the time to view and comment and favorite my previous upload, ~Dragonfly 2~ . I always think I am so lucky to have you stop by my gallery and leave a remark! My heart flutters...'
Have a Fabulous Day/Night!

Fantastic capture !!!!! Bravo my friend!!!!! Roby ;O)
Excellent capture and POV!
Superb capture. very successful. Although it is a bug shot I first thought it resembled a humming bird but not a criticism, thats just me I see something different in everything lol. Nice presentation work.
Beautiful capture. Excellent POV. Great angle.
it is a male and the scientific name maybe Trithemis aurora.it seems all reds are males according to what I have read. I posted one last summer.beautiful pov and capture
GREAT SHOT ! Love the angle. Ana

Great shot and POV ! Bravo ! The postwork is great too :-)
This is a wonderful view. Very creative! good job with this one and I bet the others are just as fantastic.
Very nice work...like the looking up at it perspective..
Very nice capture. You did a good job.
Wow your macro photography is excellent, and beautifully presented too - I am loving this series - :o) xx
simply fantastic brava
A very unusual pov but also a very good one, I have never seen a Dragonfly pictured from this angle. Great clarity and detail especially in the zoomed image. The blue of the sky really makes the little critter stand out. Excellent macro photography. Bravo!!!!!
he is wonderful excellent shot...
Excellent macro! Since you live in California(?) I'd say it has to be a male Flame Skimmer [Libellula saturata] - alternatively a Neon Skimmer [Libellula croceipennis], although the amount of coloration in the wings points to the first alternative:)
another super shot!
The sharp image and fuzzy frame complement each other well in this splendid shot of the dragonfly hanging on for dear life. Great colors, clarity and textures.
So now I know! Lol what the underside of a dragon fly looks like :) Wonderful POV, great shot
