1) dont think this is what you think it is. Doesn't look like it. More probable to be a female of some Urothemis or something like that.
6) being as bright as it is.. probably a Crocothemis servilia
A collection of common Dragonfly species that I shot with my Casio
EX-Z1200. Just a Digital Camera!

2) Dawn Dropwing Trithemis Aurora (Male)
3) Slender Skimmer Orthetrum Sabina.
4) Tyriobapta torrida
5) Red Darter Neurothemis fluctuans.
6) Scarlet Skimmer Crocothemis servilia.
Thats all folks!

Hey Ramnastone, Thanks for the comment.
Yeah, I'm not exactly sure if (1) is female Trithemis Aurora. There are many female
dragonflies that look similar to it and have the same colours. Thanks for the
information, anyway.
And (6), Thanks for the identification. Will research more on it and see.

Nice set of dragons you have there. Seems like your Casio is doing a pretty decent job.

Ranmasatone, I also expected (6) to be Crocothemis servilia when searching the net.
But could not confirm, so did not post it. Many Thanks for your help!

Luenny, Thanks. These shots were taken from my school, yeah so there are a few
concrete structures and stuff... But I can't do anything much about it....
Richard, Thanks for the comment. The head-shot in (3) was the best I could get with
this camera. Although there are many patches quite unclear. Did the best I could!
Thanks all for your comments!
