Great Capture. I also tried getting some dragon fly macros at Snug Harbor but I didn't even come close. This is beautiful.

  This is a crazy-good image Jerome!
What is up with the two white spots? Looks like someone glued those little doll eyes up there!

  Thanks for the kind comments.
I am not sure what the white spots are. Maybe reflection from the sun. I did not add them to the picture.
