August 8 2006:
Perched

I went out in search of that perfect damselfly shot this teatime, and guess what – they were all perched on the wrong side of the river so I was facing in to the sun!

There’s a great perch on the other bank and I’m hoping one will land there soon!

LOL... at least you got very nice light spots, adding a great touch to your picture :-) Great detail and composition too. It's no doubt a good catch!
