Common pond skater on the water surface

Where i was i saw many pondskaters, that were not too close though. Luckly, i had my zoomlens, so i didn't need to switch lenses. There were 2 species i saw, one being the common pond skater and one smaller species. Then i saw this individual by the small spot of duckweed. I took my shot, making me have this result!
