Dewdrop Demoiselle

A female Banded Demoiselle (Calopteryx splendens) at dawn clings to a reed at Caistor St Edmund, Norfolk, England. As a silhouette the image was already simple but by converting to black and white I have reduced it further to its most basic elements to emphasise its delicate lattice work wings and the dew which cover its wings and body.
