I'm So Blue

Ok I confess to being a little sad cuz the ocean here has once again decided to go flat, so there is no surfing to shoot. But that just means I lift my spirits by grabbing my high resolution camera and macro lens and head to the Garden to photograph some bugs. This one is a damselfly and one of my favorite insect subjects cuz I just love their eyes and alien-like appearance.
