They say lead by example. Which I consider an absolute truth. So your going to entice me out the door at Oh dark thirty with my jammies on, camera slung around my neck, to grab neat bug shots like these. All I got to say is there better be money in it. :wink Hey, let me grab my slippers.

Lovely shots- what a beautiful damselfly :)

Now that's one thing I haven't tried- shooting at night (probably because I've got all day to do it) :D

Thanks Skippy.
At first i couldn't find them at the water and then moved to the tall grass and I was surrounded . They only flew when you walk around them.

Thanks Awais ..
Not full night just enough light to focus and with the flash it exaggerates the darkness.

Thank you.
This is funny Theres 3 colors at this spot.
Red ,light green and purple.
Now yesterday I went out of town to do a shoot that required 4 hrs of hiking and along the way all i seen was light blue Damselfly's.
Kept saying I would go back to shoot them because I never seen the light blue..
