Red Damselfly.

By rpba18205
Very small red Damselfly flitting about over our pond.
Four shots taken on the 18/06/2010.
Probably best viewed large if time permits.
Many thanks for all C&Cs. Rob.

Having been involved in photography for many years, I am still amazed how you guys get such great photos from such an unpredictable subject.
Your patience must be beyond belief.
Great shot.

I tried it large as suggested and it is even better if that were possible. A brilliant close up that as Tony has said must have taken a lot of patience.

Lovely images - I'm afraid I'm going to buck the trend, though, because though V1 is a terrific detailed close up, in the larger view it's a tad too noisy for my money. So I'm going for V3 and V4, which are so gorgeous with the inclusion of the open water lily detail.

What an excellent set, Rob. I noticed the comment about noise in V 1...I had not noticed myself. However my own favourites are V 2 and 3....absolutely marvellous.
