... like a dragonfly
Regarding my tattoo ponderings below, a treasure trove of potential designs is that of art nouveau and art deco jewellery, specifically brooches. This is definitely more the style I'm seeking: flowing lines and vintage elegance. I wonder if such a detailed tattoo would bring problems in the future, such as the linework bleeding with age & c.
My other interest, tattoonically speaking, is peacock feathers. I once saw a waitress in old Sydney Town who had delicately detailed peacock feathers (no colour, just ashen greys and blacks) under her shoulder blades, where angel wings would sprout. Note these dragonfly brooches feature eyelet details on the wings which allude to peacock feathers, and if I was to choose colouring, this association could be most overtly flaunted.
Decisions, decisions!

If you decide on a tatt, I think a big one that covers most of your lower back is going to look rather garish. A small tatt would look much more classier.
Egads, there was no chance I was considering a big one! A dragonfly should be life-size, or it just isn't a dragonfly : )
Plus the pain would make a grown man pass out...
