Great closeup Debbie. The details and colors of this dragonfly are great. I can see our photos have a lot in common. Nice work. #1017674Candice L. Carter October 16, 2008

Thank you Candice for visiting my gallery all your kind words. This was one of the first purple ones I had ever seen too. I think they show up late after the blues, greys, black ones. (Maybe it just stood out..lol) Thank you again. dp #6613259Ray October 25, 2008
