Mating Damselflies @ RSPB Minsmere

…the only time they will stand still really
and you got them right! (y)
 
That's beatiful. And even though they tend to be still they're still not easy. Last week I had my head in a bunch of stinging nettles and still couldn't get the right position to get both damsels in focus against a good background!

Thanks for your kind words, Stu.

The bg was what attracted me to it when I looked through the viewfinder. It was brambles and bracken together. Nice light helped too though ;)

One thing when I changed over to FF from APS-C, you always hear about the DoF being a lot better and, yes, in most instances it is.

But I didn't think this was too bad with the D500 :)
