[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is another picture, shot from another position, of the same dragonfly posted recently.
It has been "captured" during my last summer trip in the enchanted Camargue. It is a "Lesser Emperor" dragonfly.
... from Wiki: "The Lesser Emperor (Anax parthenope) is a European dragonfly of the family Aeshnidae. It is widespread in Southern Europe. The Lesser Emperor Dragonfly has green eyes and a brownish thorax, which lacks the black markings common to many other members of its family. The abdomen is greenish brown and has a blue band at the top of the abdomen that extends down both sides of the abdomen. Adult males have territories around ponds."

Hej, naprawdę dobrej jakości zdjęcie Ważki... nie wiem dlaczego nikt tak nie uważa.
Podoba mi się poza owada, rozświetlone skrzydełka, dobra ostrość tułowia i piękny czerwony kolor...
Dziękuję i pozdrawiam
Alina
