Description
If I'm reading my book of British Insects correctly, this is a "large red damselfly". I was messing about in the garden trying out the macro lens in natural light with no flash, and to my amazement this landed on the bush I was experimenting on!! I've always wanted to get one of these on camera, and lo and behold, I find on by chance in the garden! :) :)
Comment really appreciated.
Thanks for looking!
