Clear-winged Forest Glory Vestalis gracilis. Photographed in Cotigao. These are large damselflies, measuring almost 5cm in length. Large numbers can be found resting in bushes along forest paths.

Pulled down the highlights on the twig.
Self-critique: Should have positioned the damselfly a little lower in the frame, and avoided the OOF twig by moving to the left. I'm not quite happy with this image... but would like to know your views and critiques too.
Thanks, C&C welcome.
