Male Banded Demoiselle

My favourite member of the Ordanata.

 

One of only 2 UK species of with coloured wings (the other being the beautiful Demoiselle found in the West).

 

Normally a rare site - at least where I have looked for them before - but at this spot there is nothing but Banded Demoiselles - must be there perfect habitat.

 

Taken on my first outing with the Laowa 100mm F2.8 2:1 Ultra Macro APO Lens - this is a completely manual lens (aperture ring is on the barrel) but this works fine with mirrorless - as you see exactly what exposure you will get in the viewfinder.
