Lestes sp.
sharp, properly exposed pictures of the whole animal including wing tips and if a male, a closeup of the end of the abdomen from above might get a specific i.d.

 
Thanks, Larry!
I added a couple of photos that might help a little, although I didn't get any good pics of the end of the abdomen. At least I know what to aim for next time! As for proper exposure, I took these with my iPhone, so... I'll take it up with the estate of Steve Jobs.

 
no help

When it comes to photographing insects I think Iphones are good for making phone calls :-)
