Description

I first observed this very tiny damselfly on my front porch and of course my camera was elsewhere.I was lucky the other day and it was on my patio wall.I grabbed my camera and started shooting.the larger one was shot with a 105 Sigma macro with 3 Kenko extensions.it so hard to get a whole torso focus with such a tight focus point.I removed 2 extensions and it was gone thanks for viewing and any comments.I cropped and left these full size so the detail could be seen although the focused space is small
