At the Edge of Flight
Kanapaha Gardens
Gainesville, Florida
This dragonfly was photographed at Kanapaha Botanical Gardens in Gainesville, Florida.
I found it settled at the end of a stem, balanced in that small space between stillness and flight.
Its wings were open, its body poised, and for a moment it seemed as though it could leave at any second.
At the Edge of Flight captures that brief pause when something can remain exactly where it is or choose to move on.
