Awesome capture
You got all the good field marks, and it looks like they are about to spoon too.

WOW....what a great photo.
Really gives a nice comparison of the way the female's wings hug the side of her abdomen; while the male has paddle-shaped wings that lay atop his abdomen. You can also see the black tip of the female's ovipositor.

AND you can see the 'J' black antennal markings.
