One dragonfly imitating the obelisk position of the other, the incredible one is that it is very equal even so are of different species.

Hello Paulo,
Superb capture of what look like two Libellulid species of dragonfly. Great POV and composition against a natural OOF BG. The nearest one is razor sharp1
This upright pose is what many species of dragonflies adopt to minimise body surface exposed to the sun when it is hot, which is why they look like they are imitating each other.
Well done and thanks,
Regards, Ivan
