Dragonfly

[ffutures]

Saw this in Kensington Gardens London yesterday, in the Italian water gardens at Lancaster gate

Later - reliably informed this is a damselfly, not a dragonfly. Thought it looked a bit small. My bad.

Not quite as sharp as I would like since the lens had slight fungus - I was testing it before selling it. Sigma 75-300 AF APO on Nikon D70

The wings are folded back. It's a damselfly not a dragonfly. We've been seeing then around the pond in the centre if town too.

Oops - my bad.

Cool damselfly! Better picture than I've ever managed of one!

Thanks - I thought it looked a little small, if it's a damselfly that's why.
