Some more blue dragonflies and blue spikes of flowers.
Very nice images!
And interesting to see from different perspectives.

Thanks Angky. I need to find more subjects. Shot some hummingbirds yesterday and today, but haven't downloaded them. Went to watch volleyball this evening.

Great shots, I wonder if the Dragonfly gets it's colouring from the flowers it's attracted to.

Thanks you. I doubt that is the the reason for the colors. Males and females often have different colors.

Thank you. The Sigma 135-400 is pretty good for these type of images but I need to try the 170-500 some more on the KP for comparison.
