Libelle - Dragonfly

A picture of a dragonfly (libelle in het Nederlands). I made this photo with a normal small Sony digital camera, nothing fancy, during a canoeing trip over the Dordogne. The dragonfly rested for a brief moment on my paddle, while we slowly drifted downstream near Le Buisson.

Actually it is Beautiful Demoiselle , called also Damselfly.
But does not matter , they are just beautiful insects , flying gems!

Thank you Ludek, I had never heard about damselflies, neither did I know there were differences between them and dragonflies. Thanks for telling me. And yes indeed, they are so elegant and beautiful!
