That is fabulous - where do you find these cooperative bugs? Did you see the shadow when you were taking the picture or was it a happy surprise afterward?

Oh thank you so much. I'm glad you enjoyed the photo. Finding these bugs isn't so hard, they live around water and we have plenty of that here in the UK. I somehow find the patience and sit quietly and just watch them. The shadow - I did see it, but wasn't sure how it turned out until I downloaded it.
