I took these photo's today whilst up the allotment. This beautiful Dragon Fly did a softly sweeping Poiret past me as if to say, 'Hi, here I am.'... It then just gently perched on the tallest of the bamboo canes that are supporting my runner beans, just gently warming itself in the sun.Too scared to move off of the bench I slowly reached for my camera, and whilst not taking my eyes off of him I lifted the camera to my face and zoomed in.
Can you believe the beauty of the Lacey wings, how stunning are they? Let alone the skill in balancing such a large body on top of the cane, what a place to choose for a spot of sun bathing.
It was only later that I noticed that this quiet un-assuming beauty was missing part of one of his lacey wings that he was so majestically displaying to all. Yet he had, with such grace and poise grabbed my attention as he danced his way past, enthralling and hypnotising me with every skip and spin that he performed.
Simply awesome.
