Balan, I like how you captured this damselfly face on at eye level. You managed the light quite well I think, with just the face being lit up nicely, and the leaf and BG not. The black BG makes him stand out nicely. He sure seems to be staring you down, trying to figure out what you are doing.

Great use of f25, Balan. The composition pops, as do those mauve spots in the eyes. Our damselflies are gone now.
