I had this striking dragonfly in my backyard a couple of weeks back. Interesting to see how lining it up with different backgrounds changes the overall feel of the shot. The trick with the darker backgrounds was to avoid overexposing the bright abdomen. On the pic with the darkest background I had to compensate -1.0.

The word "Common" definitely appears a lot more than the words "Rare" or "Uncommon" in animal nomenclature. The only instance I can think of is "Rare Skipper." I like "Zone-winged Skimmer."
Hey Bill,
Since you sent this blasted thing to LaPuma, who then sent it to me, I'm throwing it back at you . . .
