    Actually you need to find a dragonfly first -that's a photo of a damselfly mwink.gif

    Good shot! Damsels are difficult to photograph because they are so small -that tail section is only a 2 to 3 millimeters thick (for the metric challenged: Put 2 U.S. dimes together and they are about as thick as that tail).

    To add insult to injury the eyes really bug out from the body, so it's common to get one in focus and not the other. Looks like you did a really good job! clap.gif
