Excellent as usual Nom. I particularly like the shadow of the damselfly one.

Very interesting Nom

I am off to look for some later with my Grandaughter.

We saw some Damsel Flies last week, I think it is a good idea to introduce small children to our wildlife at an early age and to teach them to admire and respect it .

Although I am not keen on bugs of any kind, it is lovely to see these photos.

So impressed with anyone who can capture such stunning photos. Thank you for sharing.

In the grasshopper family and a huge one she is.

Nom, you have made bugs beautiful! I have a few but cannot equal yours, not even close.

Re: A few recent bugs.

On the contrary SM that an impressive looking bug, all the better for seeing it close up. Macro is something i love as it allows views the naked eye does not see.

Thanks for the comments everyone.
