It is Damselfly. May be "Green Damselfly".

Aperture F1 (???) . How did you manage that with the 18-55? The light is nice. Would have liked a bit more space on the top.

Nice composition. Some more space all around would be good. Was the aperture F1 or it is a typo?

Yes, a damselfly. Damselflies are very similar to dragonflies, but rest with their wings closed, unlike dragonflies. Also, damselflies are weaker fliers.

As per your EXIF information embedded in the image the aperture used is f5.6, Shutter speed 1/500th of second at ISO 200.

f1 aperture is a very shallow aperture not found in any of these zooms.

How big a crop is this?

Cheers,
