You really get good bug shots. You can really admire the gossamer wings of this dragonfly! Beautiful.
Great shot, Tav.

Thank you! 
I was lucky it stayed for long enough in one place.
Great shot, Tav.

Superb indeed 
I’m impressed again that you’ve captured so much detail, even the hairs on its legs 
I’m not sure what species of Odonata it is, but I like that dark green colour very much
Great shot, Tav.

It's those three knobs on the head end that impress me - nature is a great designer!
Great shot, Tav.

Dragonflies are flying jewels. It's been said that some of them stay in the air for the rest of their lives once they've emerged from their cocoons. I'm skeptical of that, as most dragonflies I've seen have eventually perched on something. Maybe they sense that I enjoy looking at them, so they stay in one place long enough to be admired. 
I think that the dragonfly in the photo trusts you, Tav. I would take that as a compliment. 
Great shot, Tav.

Thanks Sasha, Dmitri and paul! I also thought it's a very interesting insect.
Great shot, Tav.

There were dragonflies before there were any dinosaurs. The dinosaurs are long gone, and the dragonflies are still here. I would call that impressive!
