Somebody posted a shot of one of these guys awhile back, and I thought it was Really Cool. Can't remember what they're called, but I spotted one today, and was lucky enough to get a shot off. Handsome little Creature! He's about an inch and a half long. Thanks for taking the time to have a look.

"The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place; from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web." Pablo Picasso
When I was a kid, these were called "Darning Needles" and were reputed to be able to sew shut the lips of bad children!

Wonderful shot. I love the way he is balanced on the very tip of the leaf. Nicely done background, too.

It was very good as a thumbnail. It is fantastic at full size! I wish I could do the things you do with a camara. Excellent shot.

"...here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)"
~ Great shot...the body almost looks like a silver bar and the wings are exquisite!

Thanks to all the great Caedesians for your help and kind advice. Please visit my Image Gallery
Gorgeous damselfly, Greg! Wow! I love the wings. They are gossamer and sparkly. What a great close up. You did a wonderful job on this guy. He looks like he's hanging onto that leaf for dear life! lol

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

Several of my photos are available for purchase in larger format at Shutterpoint, and some are also available in high quality framed prints at http://djholmes.imagekind.com/
Well done Greg
An excellent upload a picture to be proud of mate, 16x9 / 1440x900 plus would make it good wallpaper too.

Life's around said Phil the 35 millimetre cameraman. I recently went to the doctors, and said I've got icon fever, but he told me there was no cure for the disease.

Greg,
Beautifully sharp, never easy with insects. You've got the delicate thing working big time with this one. Excellent.

Damselflies are what antlions become when adults. The antlion is the larval stage of its life.
