It was stopping in mid-air, looking for bugs to eat. Difficult, but I got lucky. Fast autofocus in my camera.

Whoah.. you must've been quick on the button to get this shot; oh the marvel of Canon cameras... indeed, must be a very high-end professional lens and camera you're using to get such a photograph so sharply... dragonflies don't hover for long in one place. Congratulations on achieving such perfection... you should definitely think about entering competitions with the material you produce... yes, indeed.

Well, I guess you can be very proud of your EOS 20D. Your camera will stiil shoot incredible pics also over many years - but also the photographer has to have a "little" talent!!!
I would die to have a Mark III... but... whatever
hehe, go on with your work!!!
greetings!!

Thankyou. I am proud of it and the top 1% of my shots. I guess I have posted the top 1%, 300 pics, from 30 000 taken... Longer lens would give better bird pics. This photography thing takes patience and determination.

Thanks! You know, when you see professionals, they have big Canon L-series lenses and Mark III EOSes. I have an EOS 20D from 2005.
