Just an old image of a dragonfly among some flowers. Trying to have an interesting bg.

90D, 90mm Tamron, AP, f8, 1/250 sec, slight crop.

Comments welcome.

A fine image, Darren, with an excellent background highlighted by the red colours. ( I still have my 90D- an excellent DSLR camera).

Gorgeous golden colored dragonfly- it really stands out against the pleasing background. I know it's not smiling, but it looks like it!
