Those were all taken handheld with the 5D MkIII + 100-400L zoom + 1.4x teleconverter. In the last photo the dragonfly was perched on a stick that was sticking out of the water.
 
Two more taken in my backyard later the same day while I was photographing the nesting Bewick's wren. The bright, direct sunlight was a real problem.

7D + 4.5/70-200L zoom, handheld

Fun to (try to) photograph when they're active and the light is just right. Two ponds in Whatcom Falls Park are great when the 'dragons' are flying..
