Excellent shot and all in perfect focus.
This is really a stunning shot. Its been a while now but I'm pretty sure its not done through the neck.
wow, another great insect shot from you---have you ever seen fighter planes refuel in mid-air? This reminds me of them---one dfly is feeding the other with its long abdomen, the way two planes do in mid-air. It's amazing, esp full size, where we can see the almost metalic sheen on the lower dfly, and the lonnnnng formation of the two, and the wholly transparent almost wire-made wings. With lots of shoots. And those 3 yellow leaves---shooting upwards---are like sun rays butting into the whole shot. Wonderful insect macro. Another in this amazing recent series. (Btw, "dfly" is my abbreviation for damselfly. I could've said "pn"---for Pyrrhosoma nymphula---but I can't even pronounce that, so I let it go...) (do insects use latin names when speaking to each other?)
Well caught, I came across two tiny Damsel fly's and there body's made the shape of a heart , sods law I had left the camera at home.
Gorgeous details in the Damselflies but also the veining in the leaves!
Wonderful shot! So clear. These are hard to catch.
