Another fabby pair - these look to be aeshnidae - 'hawkers'. Superb! YAM xx

Splendid detail of the wings. And love the blue and green of the dragonfly's body in the last photo.

Great macro shots - dragons are really fun (and often frustrating) to chase.

I thought the first similar but was lost on the second

Billy Blue Eyes said...

Yes that was my favorite one as well

Billy Blue Eyes said...

Yor right there, must have a look for more when I go there again

Nice shots of the dragonflies! They're gorgeous critters.

Billy Blue Eyes said...

They are but not easy to take.

True story - When I was 12 I was attacked by about twenty Dragonflies. Everyone said they were harmless but out of nowhere a huge swarm of them came out of the woods and flew at my face. I had scratches everywhere.

Beautiful! Really love the blue and green one :)

Billy Blue Eyes said...

Ah so maybe my dragonfly's will give you nightmare, hope not.

Billy Blue Eyes said...

I like that one as well

Laura said...

We saw a red dragonfly today while walking in Manistique, Michigan but I was unable to get the camera into focus. I was thinking about your previous post when I saw them! Hope I haven't been too confusing on my blog about where I am all the time - I parcel out my trip photos, we've been back from Minnesota and South Dakota for a couple of weeks and just hit the road again to Michigan today. We'll be in Michigan for a week, then home until the middle of October when we hit the road again for Tennessee. By stretching out my posts it makes me feel like I'm still on vacation even when I'm not! It'll be hard this winter when we're housebound, then it's time to dig into the archives of photos from before I started blogging!

The variety always amazes me. Well captured.

Not sure if I have ever seen a red one, must keep a lookout. Most of my phot are taken at weekend when I get out for a walk or on the odd vaction we have.

Thank you, I'll look out for more the next time I get down that way
