I always get a huge smile when I see macros of dragonfly heads and faces. They really DO have faces! AND HUGE EYEBALLS!! Lol...

Terrific job, Nadia!

Outstanding macro capture Nadia. I don't know if anyone else sees what I see but when I look closely I see a face within a face. Look closely and there looks like two little eyes, a black nose and mouth and whiskers. #10905897

Chris Ebben November 23, 2013

Now that you mention it, I can see the 2nd face as well. Would come in handy at times, having a 2nd pair of eyes=^..^= #10905912
