thanks very much for all of the comments, they're much appreciated. I was quite pleased with this one and normally struggle to get a mature damselfly (with adult colours) to pose quite like this. I was lucky to catch this one when it was cold.

Absolutely brilliant Matt. These photos are so detailed now, it certainly helps us to understand the anatomy of these insects. Well done.
