Hi Sandy,

This one snuck by me. Well done getting this colorful damselfly. The sharpness is pretty good and the tough thing about damselflies is that there’s not a whole there for the camera, so you have to work to nail down the focus and they always twist the abdomen out of the plane of focus. Luckily this one posed perfectly for you…Jim
