I took the pic this morning. I wonder if it is a lacewing or a dragonfly. Please help with the identification.

Thanks for your time and consideration.

This is a male common whitetail (Libellula lydia; Odonata: Libellulidae) - see http://tinyurl.com/o82bqd for images of both sexes. This is one of the most widespread species of dragonfly in North America.
