Beautiful! That first one looks gold-gilded. And, oh, the blue eyes on that last one!

Excellent photographs well caught - they never stay still enough for me.

Thanks Mike for taking the time to look and comment. I shoot 90% dragons and damsels for the county survey so I've had some practice but you're right they are not always cooperative.

Thank you Sarah for looking in. Yes, many of them are quite beautiful and quite colorful. Glad you enjoyed them.

Well Leicaflex, they don't always stay still for me either. They can see quite well out about 40 feet. Thanks for your kind comments and have a great day!

Thanks for the kind comments Paula. The Red Damsel is a favorite of mine too but if you saw it you very well might miss it. It is quite small!

Hi irvingite. Thanks for taking the time to look in and commenting. They are beautiful creatures but looking at what others post I really need to expand. Since dragon season is almost over here in PA I'm going to make it a point to start shooting some landscape and other nature scenes.
