Male Blue Damselflies

As you can tell, I enjoyed taking these photos, being that there is so many posted.

You might be asking yourself, 'What in the world is a damselfly?'
Damselflies are smaller, the eyes are separated, and most noticeably, their wings are folded parallel to their body as they perch.
This being compared to a dragonfly.

I did not know there was such a thing called damselfly, until today, while I was doing research to find out the specific species of the one below.

Photography does not just involve taking pictures.
To be a good photographer, you have to identify and know what you just took a picture of, especially in wildlife photography.

There are things that you see in your day to day life that you never stop to think twice about.

Another reason why I enjoy what I do.
It's the little things. Live and learn.
