Post One for Chris :)
A 'pseudo macro' of an interesting dragonfly I found at Howard Spring a few days ago.
Taken with the 7D, EF 300/2.8L + 2x TC, tripod.

Unsure is the species ID, can you please help me Chris? lol :D

That's one colourful dragonfly Jacci, nicely captured, it appears to be a Red swampdragon Agrionoptera insignis, or a least a more colourful version than the one in my book or a related species.
