I followed this damselfly for a long time until it finally sat down. It was sitting there for a long time, so I could take some pictures.
Hope you like it :)

I'm not quite sure about its ID, but i think its a White-legged Damselfly.

Hallo Tatiana,
Sehe eben dein Libellenbild. Wunderschöne feine Farben, gute Komposition.
Ein subtiles gefälliges Bild. Mit der ID kann ich leider nicht helfen, evtl ein Azurjungfer.
liebe Grüsse
Anne

Hello Tatjana,

Very nice photo with the damselfly. I like a lot the way you have used the soft light fro rendering very natural colors. In the same time direction of light is very well chosen and it brings height to insect's body surface. DOF is well addapted keeping the whole main subject in focus and showing great sharp details.

Thank you for sharing,
Cristian

Hallo Tatiana

Hello Tatjana,

Good sharp picture of this damselfly in a lovely composition. It seems that this one is parasited. Good exposure. Very nice colours. Good contrast against an good bokeh.
Cheers,

Hi Tatjana.
Superb in every respect picture of an amazing scene. Plant, beautiful damselfly and smooth BG are fine. Composition of the shot and your POV are spot on too. Bravo and TFS. Well done.

Hi Tatjana,
Nice detail, color, and I like this low-key exposure.
Great POV, comp, and BG also.
Well done,

Cool shot of this lovely damsel. Good low-down POV with good DOF and OOF background.
