Incredible shot!

I see dragonflies pretty often around the ponds and streams near where I live, but they never seem like they would get so close to a person. Certainly not for long enough to get a photo!

There have been a lot of very cool photos taken with “wild life” getting in on the picture taking.   :tu:
My favorite is a SAK laid on the grass and a slug got on the SAK and wanted in on the photo! Very cool photo.  :woohoo:

I’m not an expert on this but after some research, It seems to be an Iberian Bluetail damselfly – Ischnura graellsii
