Hi peeps^^.
I made this macroshot a while ago. It's family of a dragonfly but way smaller and a different building.
I used to live at a lake. Damselflies loves the water. Actually most of their life they live as a larve underneath the water as a larve.
After more than a year or sometimes 2 years they crawl up a plant above the water and sit there in the sun. They break out of their old skin and then the final stage of their live starts as a beautiful Dragonfly or damselfly with 4 wings.
The can fly very fast (sometimes more than 40 klm/h)
As you can see they have huge 360 eyes. They can observe the whole picture and catch a fly rapidly in the air.

Hope you like it<3
