Gold Dragonfly and White Grasshopper

Dragonflies come in many different colours.
For this post, you get to see a golden dragonfly found in my garden.
In my opinion it is gorgeous at every angle.





I am glad to know there are many people who appreciate little critters like I do.

In fact, Cindy Michaud, a professional artist, turned a simple photo of a white grasshopper I posted at Onenezz recently into something so amazingly beautiful below.
Do hop over to her site and check out her amazing work of art.
