I went out in my garden yesterday, hoping to see some flies, as the rain persisted in giving occasional drops to regular drips onto the already wet vegetation. ( I found the flies, to be posted separately, but was really surprised to find this damsel on a rhubarb leaf. It think it is a Large Red, not fully coloured up.

At the end of the session, apparently fed up with my presence, it took off, and landed on my hand! Nice touch but not very helpful.

Anyway, this is an improvement on the only other sighting this year, when I got one eye framed.

E-P2 on manual, ISO 200, Printing Nikkor 105mm at f8, ca 150mm extension from the sensor, softbox and manual flash, hand-held.

I returned, in similar weather today and found this one trying to shelter under a leaf.

This time I used f11 and TTL flash (single unit, undiffused).
