I don't shoot insects that much, but the blue on the wings caught my eye. I rarely see this type of dragonfly around my area. Looks like he's taking a break drinking from a straw.
Handheld with Canon 70-200mm f2.8 and SOOC.
One of the prettiest dragonflies we have around here. (I know I say that about so many of the dragonflies I post.) Looking forward to seeing them again this summer. Libellula pulchella, Libellulidae. Central IL, Summer 2012.

I found this damselfly stuck in the sundew on a log a couple of feet from shore. It was alive, so I tried to free it, reaching with a stick. He flew up in the air and disappeared...not sure where he landed. Didn't go according to plan.
