One of several of this color who posed nicely during a photography outing in Singapore, I believe he is a Rhyothemis triangularis, which is also known as a Sapphire Flutterer.
The second dragonfly's wings bring to mind warmth & fire.
Loved the lacy pattern on its wings & the dramatic red & gold color combo.
There were far more of these red & gold dragonflies than there were of the blue version, but both were snoozing the night away in the same location.

It was spectacular sight to see so many dragonflies snoozing in the same area.
