For Shadow Shot Sunday:
Damselflies enjoying the sun, the river and the water lilies.
Zoomed in from quite a long distance I’m afraid.
I was hoping for one to land closer to me but no such luck.
The female is coppery brown, the male is metallic blue.
All of your shots make me long to live near a pond or lake. Instead, I'm stuck in a desert!

Sing a song of shadows
Taller than a tree!
Sing a song of shadows
Wider than the sea!
Sing a song of shadows
Dancing in the sun!
Sing a song of shadows—
Day is almost done!
