This morning (my last day of the summer holiday) I got up early to search for dew-covered darters after a relatively cold night. This Banded Darter (Sympetrum pedemontanum/Bandheidelibel) was warming up on a perfect perch. The bright washed-out spot is the reflection of the sun in a small pool. It doesn't bother me; there is simply no sensor today with a dynamic range that is large enough to capture this.

great atmosphere and colours Gerard. I agree about the bright spot. It is also a kind of contraweight in the picture for the banded darter.
Beautiful photo! Well done.
