Description
Rhionaeschina multicolor. Male.
Resembles California Darner, but that species is not supposed to be here, so... Found at Sweetwater Wetlands, southern Arizona, USA, day before yesterday. This species hovers a lot and rarely stops anyplace. Getting a good picture while he is hovering is a near impossibility. I have tried numerous times. This individual blessed me by posing, and I got several good pictures.

nice capture!!!
Wow! You found a very accomodating model here. Dragonflies are very hard to get a good photo of. Fantastic picture!
so beautiful !! dreamy capture !!
He has nice blue eyes and a great body texture.
Awesome shot! I love the shadows captured so you get the feeling hes warming in the morning sun. Or drying his perfectly detailed wings, captured beautifully here with your lense. Great shot- thanks for sharing! :) And have you checked out the Photography Story Challenge? Go continue the story!
