Common Bluetail dragon fly flying over the water

---

I took about 200 shots of this dragon fly trying to get the right one. I was standing on a small jetty, analyzing the sunlight and at which angle I should take a photo of this dragonfly without having the water reflecting, creating the black background. Once I found the spot, I waited for the dragonfly to make a passage and pressed the shutter.
