Dragonflies and damselflies are among the most striking insects found in our local ponds, canals and wetlands. This project focuses on their life cycle, from emergence through to territorial behaviour, mating and predation.

Using close-up and behaviour-focused photography, I hope to show the complexity and beauty of these species, and what they can tell us about the health of our freshwater habitats. This is a seasonal project, returning each summer as new species appear and established ones re-emerge.
