The weather here continues to be amazing. With glorious days, lots of sunshine (no coats needed). And clear, clear sky – meaning the night-time temperatures drop to about -7c The plants are confused – but I’m happy […]

Magnificent photo. You just don’t realise (or remember) how very complex our insects are until you see something like this. Take a gold star.
Wow!
Wow indeed!
The intricacy of the wings is wonderful…how they carry the body is amazing! gail
What a fabulous macro!

Great photograph. Those yellow stripes!
What a wonderful photo – thank you for sharing. Nature is so full of detail even on the smallest creatures and plants.
Have a super weekend
What can I say – fab photo. Arent insects amazing
i love that yellow and black combination. And what a surprise to see the yellow edging on the black wing!
I love the artwork on the wings… magnificent patterns!! excellent shot! ~ bangchik

Absolutely beautiful. Having watched SomeBeans trying to take a photo of one of these whilst on holiday, I can only be amazed at your fantastic photo.
Peter wants to know what lens you used to get such a great shot?
Awdsome photo of this dragonfly! I admire your blog and your photography skills.
