  1. I'd have never known to call that a blue dasher -- now I do. Excellent macro shot. We just ordered some macro extension tubes for our Canon Rebel. We will have to look for a blue dasher to try them out!

  2. A really outstanding shot. I am with Jerry; I didn’t know this was a Blue Dasher, just a Dragonfly.

    For me, it’s the color and detail that really make this shot. Also, this is a very good example of the “purples” found in nature. Until I started getting more serious about photography, I would not have believed that “purples” were so prevalent.

    Very well done!

  3. What impresses me about this photo is the excellent detail in the whites. I am discovering just how hard this is to accomplish! Lovely
