Description
Suspended above the surface of a lake, and resting on a small branch, is a dragonfly. Its two sets of wings are parallel to each other and are mirrored by those on the other side of its body. Although the stick is at an angle, pointing toward the upper right corner of the image, the body of the insect remains horizontal, thanks to its strong legs.
The muted background, purposely out of focus, is the surface of a lake, which reflects an overcast sky. If one looks closely, one can see several lily pads on the right edge of the frame. At the bottom left is a touch of color, with grasses jutting out from the shore. The angle of the grass blades corresponds to the angle of the stick.
