I am pretty sure this is a female Banded Pennant but I will wait for confirmation before moving it to:
"Celithemis fasciata"

This one does look female
It is a different 10th Dragon -- a Dragoness!

woohoo
I sure glad I get the gender of some right. I think I will start to just play it safe and leave the gender designation off my Dragonfly images unless I am 100% positive, lol.

Yep
I think your right (but I've not had the pleasure of seeing this species yet myself...so maybe get a second confirmation).
Very nice specimen and great photo.
If you have two photos of the same individual you can link them. After you've uploaded the first I believe there is a button you can "add another photo" and you don't have to re-enter all the info. After they are uploaded (like now) you can click "tag" on both then you should have an option under the tagged images to "link images".
