First hawker dragonfly of the year

Lord Vetinari

Had the first hawker dragonfly of the year visit the garden yesterday. As susual it insisted in hanging up in the worst places for photography (not yet worked out the best artificial perch for these). Mix of 40D/Tamron 90 and 5Dmk2/MPE-65 shots.

Even though he didnt cooperate as much as you would liek, they're still very nice captures
