Description

Peek-a-Boo!

This damselfly was playing a game with me--first hiding behind the grass--then showing all his colors, and so on........

Image made in situ this afternoon ISO 320 f/11 1/200

Tomorrow, I will show you all his colors and hope to have his ID as well.

Perhaps you will view LARGE!!

Hi Jenn,
I agree with TyChee - seems a bit reluctant to let you see more! Looking forward to next upload when we may see the full story.
Regards, Ronnie.

Well Jen, you know that I am a big fan of your work anyway but this is another league up again.
You must enter this in any international wildlife contests this year.
One of those once in a lifetime shots.

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!
