Dragonfly

I saw this beauty of an insect while walking my dog just now. Incidentally, the camera I brought along for this morning's brunch was still in my pocket.

It was almost miraculous, the way the dragonfly flew off from time to time, only to land on that blade of lalang/grass again and again, as if complying to this photographer's whims.

My only regret is that this shot isn't as clear as it could've been, but considering I've never successfully taken a photo of a flying creature, it's a first step.
