Wandering Glider

This is the first time I've attempted to photograph a dragonfly in flight. I actually had no choice as this was a
new species for me, and it wouldn't land! Fortunately this one likes to hover, and I am pleased with the result.

Wow!!! Great shot!! I saw two of these behind the airport and do you think I was quick enough to catch them in flight? NO way! Very well done!!! VV
