Large red damselfly (Pyrrhosoma nymphula)
Taken on my garden pond, this little guy spent all last year as a nymph, came out of his exuvia only to get tangled in the plants, unfortunately his wings never unfolded and he was doomed as he emerged.
I do have images with a more uniform background but I preferred the lighting on the damselfly in this particular one, I more or less managed to get the image without any specular highlights which is what I wanted.
