My First DragonFly (16)

Hi Friends,

This is the first time I have ever shot a dragon fly. Last weekend I visited a zoo in my city. When my kids and wife was busy watching animals and having fun, I was running behind this helicopter like insect in the bushes. It was continuously flying from bush to bush. Almost on my half click it was changing its location and I missed him for several times. Finally he gave me a chance for a full click.

I tried a lot to find its name on the net. The nearest name I found was Ditch Jewel - Brachythemis contaminata. I am not sure if thats correct, so have not named the photo with that name.

Hope you like it.

Thanks for viewing,
Kedar
