A stunning Damsel! Great wing colours. It is always striking to see the wing details of this splendid species - as in here!! I have no idea how you get such amazing shots, Björn! Сheers & goodnight.Elena

Thank you, Elena ! Sometimes I'm lucky to get focus right, as this time. To take many shots on the same object a. then delete the most of them is my metod to get a few good ones. I agree with you. It's amazing to see the fine details of a insect or a flower in a high resolution. The diversity of nature seems to be infinite. There is still a lot out there for us to discover, so don't forget to bring your camera with you on your walks. Sleep well ! Greetings from Karlskrona ! /Björn

Hello Björn! You captured this Beautiful Demoiselle perfectly! It's an excellent close-up! I also have one in my collection, but it's by far not as good as this one. Greetings from Germany, Anne BTW, YS!
