Dragonfly Rests

Click the photo to enlarge

We have so many dragonflies flitting about on the Kansas prairie.... this is the first time I've come close enough to snap a photo of one. It's not as close as I wanted, but it's better than the pin dots I've captured before!

    Those dragonflys are difficult to capture - you did great! He is a lovely blue. I tried getting one tonight but he wouldn't sit still at all.

    I think dragonflies are fascinating. That is so cool that you had your camera handy to capture this one.

    Love the colors!!!
