Checkered Setwing on Cactus

Checkered Setwing on Cactus – After posing so nicely on a bare tree branch the Checkered Setwing of the family Dragonfly moved to the very tip of one of our Century Plants and remained absolutely still allowing me to get photos of him with a less busy background. The background is the outside wall of our garage. It appears in many of my backyard photos. Although the color does not necessarily complement the subject of the photo, it does give me a good gauge to ensure the color balance of the image is proper.
