Practicing my Sneaking Skills - _TNY_8449

Spending Midsummer's Eve (the afternoon of the day called "eve" I mean) with the family at lake Långsjön in the Paradiset nature reserve with a picnic and some lovely swimming, I managed to find the time to pop over to the even smaller lake Svartsjön (literally "black lake") and tried sneaking up on some of the many dragonflies that were perched on branches leaning put over hte water.

 

This male small whiteface (Leucorrhinia dubia) was one of the braver ones and stayed put long enough for me to get a couple of decent shots of him.
