Nature Some Dragonfly Photos

I believe this one is a male Widow Skimmer. It kept flying away and then coming back to perch on the same couple of twigs allowing me to get some close-up shots. Interesting how they draw two of their legs up behind their head when they don't need them.

Very well captured and I like the colours of this Dragonfly

One outstanding wildlife series. I gotta say it, Numero Uno is by far the winner. Brilliant capture.

Great captures. Dragonflies Usually don't stay put for long.

Well, you certainly had the right lens for this subject. Your Dragonfly does an excellent job with dragonflies! Fantastic images.

Thank you for your terrific comment Tony! I also favor the first image. The details of the wings show well in it.

Think you've cracked this Dragonfly photography malarky, the first image is a belter.
