Damselflies and the odd dragon out

[wayfaringwordhack]

Clearing space on my hard drive, so here are some photos that I'm saying bye-bye to. 

A banded demoiselle and a beautiful demoiselle.

   

My, what hairy legs you have, milady!
   

Here is the odd dragon out, photographed in Martinique. If I were naming this fellow, he would be a pomegranate dragonfly. 



One almost think these are the water-buckled pages of a book. I wonder what kind of tales are written on the wings of damselflies?

One thing is sure: You need good eyes to read them.

Beautiful pix! Hope you posted them all to Wikipedia Commons before deleting! If not, send them to me.

Posting them to Wikipedia Commons is a great idea.

Wow, great photos! And I wonder how small the spider was that made that web in the third last picture.

Those are beautiful. Archive the photos on Flickr. You save them and still make room on the harddrive.

So beautiful!

They are so beautiful and gemlike.

God looked at cut jewels and said, "Let them have wings," and lo, dragonflies were born.

Beautiful photos. I've never had much luck with dragonflies.

Gorgeous! Don't delete them! Or if you do, put them in Commons first, as someone else suggested.

::wants that camera:: Such clarity of image! My macro feature just isn't macro enough. Awesome photos, Miq.
