Beauty and a Beast.

It's amazing how beautiful Dragonflies are but they are one of the most amazing hunters as well.
So hot today so we thought we would take a trip up to the botanical gardens for some shade from the trees and shrubs of the tropical regions.
The added benefit was a great display from some of the native dragonflies. I would have loved to have got a good macro lens onto them but his s heavily cropped from my 5x zoom lens.
