The damselfly fly very slowly and soften time will rest in the leaves near us which makes them looks so tame, and you can easily photograph them. But things will be different once you try to get close to them. Since they tend to perch on the difficult part of the leaves, a slight movement that we do to try to photograph them will make them alert and then fly away.
This damselfly is the same, it rested almost on the tip of the lemongrass leaf, at first I didn't want to take the photos since I knew that it might fly away so fast, but since it seemed too tame, then I tried my luck. But yeah, I only get two photos in the end. : )
The next one is the mating bugs that I disturb when I try to take the photograph. Yeah, they ended the mate when I tried to take the photos. I think my presence was disturbing their ritual.
They then tried to flee and stepped into one another before finally flying away, unfortunately.
