Meeting the Locals

Why do bugs always feel the need to visit me at my door? I went to through my trash away and I come back to hear a sever buzzing sound in my door way. And there is the biggest dragonfly I have ever seen. I know these things are harmless, but that didn't stop me from cowering like a little baby and praying for it to leave. So I managed to run into my apt, into safety. Then I felt like I should photograph the damn thing. So I grab my camera, RUN out to a safe distance (approximately 1.2 kilometers away), and prepare my camera. Here are some of the shots I took. Sorry for the quality, but I was using the telephoto lens and it is very humid outside.
