Side View Common Green Darner

So, what to do when a species you have been chasing a couple of years suddenly is cooperative? You move very slowly & try to get some shots you normally would not be able to. So I got very close and turned myself and the camera sideways to get a side view. The more I see, the more I love this guy's colors.
