This large, bright dragonfly was the only one that would cooperate and sit still long enough for my autofocus to settle down, although it was so docile I fear he may have been on his last legs. The picture was taken at the small pond at the end of the old railway cutting; it's often missed by those who keep to the old track bed as it's above head level part way up the embankment. It's always worth a look as it's teeming with life.
