Hi, Fons
A very nice photo, the Grey background done by your car give a "soft" touch to the picture.
Do you have some pond in your garden to have dragonflies coming like that ?

Cheers

Thanks Bruno for the comment.
Yes the backyard is located on water we have lots of insects like this around the house.
This shot is made on the front yard where this little Dragonfly( 5cm long) had lunch.
She flew up and down again catched a fly and came back to that flower to consume it..
I made several images but this is one of the best...

Thanks Nigel,

Never thought about it that my car would make this nice background...
Wish I could move my car to all the locations I shoot images...;-)
