Monsoon and the intimacy

ID: Grass demon(mating)

Spotted this beautiful sight while returning from the Nagla trail's walk. For the whole trail I attempted to catch the crazy flier, the Grass Demons, but they were a tad too swift to be captured in frame, luckily for me I came across this pair, who fortunately didnt get bothered by me peeping into their intimate session

Nice you could photograph them mating. The background leaf enhances the subjects. Since they are parallel to the sensor, the depth of field is good resulting in good details. Thanks for sharing.

Great that you got a mating image. Without flash what shutter speed were you getting? Thanks for sharing.

Didnt check, but at 1/60 and ISO 400 it was almost black.
