Yeah Cook, I chased this little sucker around for quite a while if memory serves, I may have wore him out.

Then he should not complain. He did not end up skewered on a hat pin.

I've found that dragonflies will return to  a favored perch thus no need to chase them around... Nice capture Ernest !

Love the way you got focus across the entire subject.
Would you be willing to share the equipment knowledge and EXIF data?

Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.
