Very good macro, most people capture them at rest but you have found the movement.

Good evening, Earnest,
great, how did you get the mosquito before the lens. The wings look like small spinning blades of a helicopter. The colors I really liked it. Dear greetings Christel

@The Dark Dude: I suppose I've taken advantage of everyone who isn't an entomologist! This is a dragonfly that has spotted a mosquito at the position!

Haha, I saw some dragonflies at a lake I was at today and thought of you but the darn things wouldn't land on anything or hold still long enough. I got a blurry shot of one of them.
