    This was the first Emerald damselfly I had visiting my garden pond, I was very surprised to see it as there are locally so few.
    All comments welcome.

    Hi Jon. I like the double diagonals of the damselfly and the stem as well as the lighting that brings out a lot of detail. You also have good sharpness and a clean background - as usual. You might remove the single strand of spider web near the top of the frame as I don't think it is adding anything to the image. Very well done!

    This is really good for me. The perch captured is also too good!
