DRAGONFLY

Hawkins, TX

I stopped by the lake on my way to my sister's house and was taking a few shots when I noticed this guy on my sideview mirror. So sorry about the dirty sideview mirror but with dust and sprinkles you end up with this. The dragonfly didn't seem to mind. :)

In French: Libellule - now where did that come from? Nice reflection in the mirror.

These are an endless form of fascination to me...how lucky to have it land right there.

Very nice capture.

They were swarming here a week ago. Must be a late hatch. They sure picked a HOT week to emerge!

Dang ~ this is such a great candid shot! I love the detail in the wings! :0)

Great catch, Cinci ... love the colors and detail ... if the dragonfly could see the photo, he'd hang it on his wall (I don't know if they have walls where they hang out ... do you?)

Fabulous macro.... I like the effect the side view mirror adds to the shot, candidness. Jv V!
