This is probably the most beautiful damselfly that we have in our area, and it was really fortunate that they lined up on the same focal plane. This was my first experience with my new Nikkor 300mm f4 VR lens and I fell in love with it immediately.

Wow. What a unique and excellent image. Now if they do that for you on a regular basis, you'll be known as the damselfly whisperer. :D

Nice image - lovely to see so many "pairs".
Glad you like the Nikon 300mm PF lens - it is amazing and really a delight for such work.
