I had to stop my car instantly and jump out to take the photograph before the amazing sunburst vanished.” DEMOISELLE DAMSELFLIE­S By: Julia Benson Where: Exmoor National Park, Somerset “While out walking, I managed to capture this shot of the European damselfly Calopteryx virgo, commonly known as beautiful demoiselle, during mating .”
