The Dragonhunter

Great Falls Park - Virginia

This was my first time seeing the mighty Dragonhunter, one of the largest dragons.
They live up to their name often preying on other dragonflies, and are often called the "wolf" of insects.
This was the only view offered, it was on a branch out over the water.

Canon EOS 350D ,Canon EF 400mm f/5.6L USM
1/250s f/5.6 at 400.0mm iso100 (with extension tube) full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Oh how fantastic!! Super image Sayer and what a great background to show off that wonderful wing pattern. (I think you should have a word with this dragonfly and tell it he is not to eat the other dragons, its not nice lol.)
