[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
9:00 pm: Today is one hot night as so many others during the last 3 weeks, while I was working with a file, I listened music, when beginning a song that called " Love " and that its letter says: "Love, Love, Love.. it was born of You, it was born of My, of the Esperanza.." this beautiful insect appeared, and I pose on the horn of my pc, I am not sure if it is a dragonfly, we sometimes here call them "chicharra", although there are several types, this it is of the smallest, and there is with black line and with line in red color, this remained for the time that the song lasted, when finishing the song she left.
********************************************************
9.39 pm. The list of the songs has repeated and it is again the shift of the Song "Amor": the Dragonfly has returned and she has settled, for one second, on my arm, in my right shoulder... this cannot be more than a beautiful message of Love.

***Thank you Adrián to provide me the fact of the correct name in English, of this beautiful insect:).

.....I am pending with the correct name in Spanish.

Hello Ninfa, this is a very nice shot of a dragonfly, I like the vertical line of white and blue, sort of dividing the image in two, the 'inanimate' and the 'animate' it is a very soft and delicate image, that is complimented by your very interesting note, I would like to have seen a tighter crop and maybe a nice delicate border around the picture.
Great Work, keep it up.

Wonderful composition. Like it a lot! I like that it is also in vertical format.

Nice shot! I'd call this one a damselfly rather than a dragonfly though - damselflies fold their wings together like this one, dragonflies tend to rest with their wings open and are usually bigger too. If it were my shot then I'd consider sharpening it a little more to emphasise the fine detail on the wings, and probably use Levels to bring up the dark point a little. That said it's a very good capture :-D
