Indeed, this is such an elegant Damselfly that you've captured very well here in good light. Excellent focus and sharp details and the colours are lovely and stand out against the smooth background. Well done!
Many thanks, Ulla

Hallo Grzegorz
These insects amaze me time and time again. It always looks as if they are holding on for dear life. A stunning close-up with great clarity and detail. The colour of this damselfly is really spectacular and although I like the metallic coloured one's this one has a special attraction to the eye, especially the gold coloured streaks in the middle of the body. You have captured this damselfly with great focus and care displaying the fine hairs and the spikes on the legs with clarity. Thanks for this contribution.
Kind regards.
Anna

Now I notice you use a combination of extention tubes with your 70-300mm to make such fantastic macros, Greg.
You are my Guru in the use of this lens. I have been following you closely.
The image is perfection incarnate.
Thanks and regards.

Splendida macro, eccellente sotto tuti gli aspetti, ma quello che mi piace di più è la tua capacità di utilizzare al meglio la luce. Grazie e complimenti. Ciao Maurizio

Hey Greg!
Superb macro of Blue-Tailed Damselfly.
I like how you've composed this and the parallel POV has kept the whole insect in focus.
Excellent blurry BG.
Sharp and crisp.

Well done,
Joe
