EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this enchanting snapshot captured by Ross Hoddinott, we witness a mesmerizing moment between two banded demoiselle dragonflies. Silhouetted against the backdrop of Lower Tamar Lakes in Cornwall, England, these delicate creatures find solace and romance amidst the reeds. The male and female duo elegantly perch upon the swaying stems, their slender bodies creating captivating silhouettes against the warm glow of June's golden sunlight. Their intricate wings shimmer with iridescent hues as they rest after an exhilarating flight. It seems that love has found its way into this picturesque scene! The male dragonfly proudly displays his vibrant colors to woo his potential mate. With grace and charm, he showcases his broad wings while casting a watchful eye over her. Meanwhile, the female exudes an air of mystery as she delicately perches beside him. Her presence adds depth to this beautiful composition—a testament to nature's artistry. As finalists in the International Garden Photographer of the Year 2021 competition under "Wildlife in the Garden" these dragonflies have undoubtedly stolen our hearts. Their timeless elegance reminds us that even within nature's smallest creations lies immense beauty and profound connections. So let us celebrate this breathtaking moment frozen in time—an ode to love and serenity among reeds—where passion takes flight with every beat of their fragile wings.
