Very nice indeed.

Great to see a damsel on something other than a grass stem. One minor nit - it is a touch cramped top and bottom for me which can easitly be rectified, I also just wonder if it would have suited a portrait rather than landscape format better?

Agree a little more space top and bottom but a different view to what is usual of this Blue-tailed Damselfly, I really like the concept,

Nice....

Suprised at your age you managed to get back up again...! :biggrin: LOL! (one back at yer..)

Nit already mentioned, but works for me and I know how frustrating these little ones have been in this weather.

Brett. :cool:
