A male Emerald Damselfly, one of my favourite damselflies. Taken early in the morning hence the dew.

Canon 40D with Sigma 150mm lens, f6.3, 1/125, ISO 200.

Here's a slightly larger version.

All C+C welcomed.

Just like a jewel, a very apt name indeed. Well up to your usual high standard.

Top damselfly shot.
Nothing to criticise here at all.
