Good evening, my friends. While my sister and I were cleaning the front yard, I suddenly found a damselfly flying among the paper flowers. This dragonfly continued to fly as if it had no definite destination. I kept watching where this dragonfly was flying until it finally landed on an orange paper flower. As we all know, damselfly is very small, even the size of its wings is larger than its body size, and it can be clearly seen even from a distance. It is very difficult to photograph this dragonfly, especially if we photograph it in its entirety. If using macro, I might only be able to capture half of its body upwards, but to get maximum results, I still try my best.I experienced failure, specifically during the first experiment, the dragonfly flew to another flower because I accidentally touched the branch where the dragonfly was perched, luckily it didn't fly far from me.I managed to photograph this dragonfly on my second try, but I only managed to take a few pictures.

Okay everyone, now I will share some images of this damselfly here.
