Widow Skimmer (Female)(Libellula luctuosa)
Perhaps it is the heat or the punishing humidity, but lately I am less than satisfied with the pictures I am taking, and I am always admonishing myself not to correct, retouch, enhance and embellish the day's recorded activities. If the Old Wild Mother dishes out heat, humidity and wind on a sunny summer day (or an overcast one), who am I to tinker with her arrangements, and She does perfect dragonflies...

I do enjoy computer tinkering with my photos, but my best ones and the ones I enjoy the most are the untouched ones, where everything just came together.
I love your photos.
I prefer untouched. There is more authenticity in them. And your photos are gorgeous! Plaster that on a note and stick it in front of your computer please. Gorgeous!!!!!
splendid exhibition of nature's magic.
this photo made my heart stop for a moment. so beautiful.
the heat is lying.
And yet here is a dragonfly with stained glass wings captured perfectly in one of your photos. So perfect! I breathed a deep sign of release and relaxation as I saw this photograph.
I don't think I've ever seen a more beautiful photograph of a dragonfly. It is so delicate and I was surprised by the two dark spots close to the body. Very beautiful.
