"Les Catalpas" was our little paradise in France. (Since July 2011 we are back in the Netherlands.)

Damselflies and Chasers
I have been trying for years to take quality pictures of these creatures when we were living in France, and never succeeded over there. Our son now lives in Halsteren, and near their house is a pond teeming with damselflies and schasers. All the above pictures are from there.
From top down:
Blue damselfly- azuur waterjuffer
Red damselfly- vuur waterjuffer
Scarce blue damselfly- lantaarntje
Blue damselflies at work- azuur waterjuffers bezig met hun nageslacht.

Broad bodied chaser- platbuik libelle, korenbout.
My Sigma 105mm macro lens came in handy! I hope to publish some more close up insects some time soon.
