Dragonfly eating ant.

I hesitated about adding this, because it is not as sharp as the rest. I used my Tamron with a +10 screw on filter. I know not proper macro gear, and I had to get real close. I was lucky, the dragonfly was too busy concentrating on his lunch to be bothered with a camera lens about 2 inches from it. I believe he is eating an ant with wings, and you could see the ant still fighting him. He was chewing, the ant was wiggling and I think stinging him, because every once in a while he would give a little jerk. I was so engrossed in watching him eat the ant through the lens that I almost forgot to click the shutter.
