Great camouflage
Yesterday I was out with a fellow birder who spotted this dragonfly as it settled into this hiding spot. If he hadn't pointed it out I never would have seen it!
Closeup of wings
The wings are delicate and detailed.
And here's a closeup of the dragonflies body

Great detail in the wings.
This is a spectacular view … don’t think there are too many photos of the underside of this beautiful winged creature. So great to be this up close and personal with a dragonfly!
Great close ups and I love those delicate wings.
Fantastic! Beautiful capture.

I really love that wing shot! Look at the artistry on them. Like stained glass.
You have a very good eye to even find this thing! Terrific photos, too. I've never seen a dragon fly before.
These are absolutely gorgeous!

well done! great shot.
Amazing shots of amazing insects; I've always intended to learn more about them.
Seriously...you have left me speechless.
So well done. I can't take a macro to save my life.
What amazing details you captured! Wow!
Love your green photos here! Such details!
Awesome shots! I love the close up of the wings.
Terrific pictures of the dragonfly.Seems to be a good year for them.
Really fine details of the dragonfly's wings! You were fortunate to be so close. That hasn't happened to me yet with a dragonfly. The strength of the engineering of their wing struts always amazes me.
Oh, those gorgeous wings! Nature is pretty good at her art, eh?
=)
That wing close-up is lovely. Worth spending some time admiring.
Breathtaking! Both the photos and the creature. I wonder how dragonflies got their name. Did they shoot out fire at one time?
Take 25 to Hollister
Oh My!!! Magnificent close-up♡♡♡ My husband said it should be very difficult to capture like these:-)
Sending Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan, xoxo Miyako*
Gorgeous close up of those wings! Makes me want o play Michael Frank's Dragonfly Summer!
Very nice with the transparent wings and green surroundings
Wonderful macro detail Tina.. I love finding these insects ... They are amazing..Michelle
Absolutely stunning shots of this critter...like looking at stained glass!
