Its face makes me think of Garfield. I shall call it Garfield. |D

Really nice shot! Also, I just so happened to read your explanation about why its eyes are a different color while I was scrolling down to comment... that is so cool. : D

Wow!

How come the eyes are half-orangish, half greyish?

The top set are used for hunting, and that's why a dragon always attacks its prey while climbing. The bottom set are used for navigation while flying.

Beautiful composition, light and timing. The light reflection on drops give a beautiful boken!

???? I don't see any resemblance. Your links must be wrong. This is an incredible photo of a dragonfly's head taken at 4:42 a.m. by The Master of Macro.
