Ruddy Darter
I took this image of a Female Ruddy Darter a few weeks back, it was late in the afternoon when I found her resting on some Rosebay Willowherb. I used a shallow depth of field to keep the background diffused.

Canon EOS 1D MK11, 180mm Lens, F8, 1/125, ISO 200.

Ruddy nice too, love the bg, just a slight shame that there appears to be a touch of motion blur on the end of the abdomen.....
