DARTER IN THE DAISIES!
Immature female Common Darter (Sympetrum striolatum), Devon England.
As a wildlife photographer how often do you stand in front of a scene thinking "If only an insect/bird would perch on this picturesque plant/tree!"? Well, I was stood in front of hundreds of daisies along the bank of a large pond and was thinking "If only a dragonfly would enter the scene" and this Darter suddenly climbed up from below. Sometimes wishes do come true!
