Another great image Andy. Falling out of trees, lying on your back, what is next I wonder. I am amazed at your patience and determination to keep obtaining these wonderful insect shots.
A great inspiration to us all, keep it up.

Watcha Andy,
excellent wildlife here, I've seen a couple of damsels this year, a common blue and a banded damoiselle, but no dragons.
