Very nice capture. You are using the FL 50? I don't know this damselfly. I can see a lot of details and no disturbed backgrond. Great! Regards Hans

Hello Fons

Very nice capture - I see your are back in circulation now.

Hans - it is a recently emerged Emerald Damselfly, you can just see the grenn starting to show on its abdomen and thorax. The real givaway is the position of the wings - all other damselflies hold their wings flat against the abdomen.

Cheers

Albert

I like the contrast between a pleasant blurred green background and the sharpness of the damselfly.
Nice shot
