Last Dragon of Summer


	Last Dragon of Summer I have really enjoyed this past summer chasing dragonflies and damsels around the fields and ponds in my backyard. This image of my lovely friend is one of of my favorites from the pond. Re-cropped and re-submitted as a farewell until next year! It was captured hand held in macro mode. I did a litle additional work to remove background noise in PS as suggested by a BP member. Thanks Ariel! Laurie Daily

Really nice, Laurie. I've thoroughly enjoyed my wander through your gallery. Last time I tried for dragonfly pictures I got about a hundred chigger bites.
