Hi Jarmo,

I find photographing damsels quite hard. However, this beauty is so cleanly composed and harmonious. These ladies are so delicate and need more care and you did just that!

Dragon flies, by contrast, resting with wings outstretched are far easier to frame as the strong horizontal wing elements can vanquish prominent plant buds that otherwise can be distracting.

Thank you all for your nice comments. Asher, I find dragons to be a far more demanding subject. Damsels only fly short distances and stop resting offering good photography opportunities. Dragons, on the contrary, seem a lot more cautious and fly so fast...

syrem but they often have regular patrol routes and one just has to observe them and then spot their favorite perches.
