Butterflies to Dragonflies

Although they don't have the beautiful colorful patterns of the butterflies, dragonflies can also be photographed in "fine art." These next two photos both have soft green backgrounds and one element to offset the dragonfly itself: in one case a broken branch of a tree and in the second a blade of grass. The Red Skimmer in the second photo provides some color, while the unidentified dragonfly in the first photo is almost a silhouette with just enough light green behind it to provide some contrast.
