Nice shot. Good colour combination and I like the way you have shown it in its environment. There is a dust spot above the wing.

You can see some of my photos here if you are so inclined

Well spotted on the dust. Still too jetlagged to check all the shots from my trip.

Late spring conditions in Greece this year meant sveral sensor cleans during trip despite careful lens changes.Hurricane blower essential in camera bag!

Jetlag? From Greece to Derbyshire?
I'm sick of damsel fly shots, but this one is quite special.
