I agree with Colin...........I've had a look at my field guide..........and I'd go with Brown Hawker too. The golden brown wings are the clincher for me!

It looks a bit dark on my screen Muarice, but viewed large you can see the fantastic sharpness and detail of this shot. A beautiful catch!

I think it's a fantastic bronze brooch with tiny aquamarine gems! ... That's my ID :))
A beautiful capture, Maurice, and what a good eye spotting it on this background. It works beautifully for the photo, letting us "discover" the dragonfly gradually.
