Excellent shot of this female banded Demoiselle, very nice BG too!!
Vic.

This really is a superb shot, super colours, dof, presentation and most of all the composition, the angle of the blade it is sitting on is photographed perfectly if that makes sense? I'm not to clever at the "photographers jargon" lol.
Really well done, this one's headed for my shortlist.
Regards Ricky.
