Exuvia
Either Broad Bodied Chaser or Four Spot. Full frame.

D300 150mm + 12mm extension tube
f9 1/25s ISO400 0EV Tripod
Flat out - broken neck - wet foot stuck in pond. All so worthwhile :biggrin:

Thanks again much appreciated. :smile: :wavey:

Very nice, Maggie. As you were stuck in the mud and not going anywhere just like the exuvia you could have had a go at stacking the images. :smile: :wink:

Know the pain.... an angle finder helps somewhat.... nits covered and perhaps a little big in the frame, I really like the lighting coming through the leaves...

What is it with you and water ?
Nit covered re the high light but overall a pleasing image .
