Monomad: You can get close, but please don't touch us!

[akukamaruzzaman]

These are macro photos taken during a nature walk near Blang Kolam waterfall, North Aceh. The Sundanese Gossamerwing is a typical damselfly that lives in rocky river environments. I observed hundreds—maybe more—of damselflies along the shallow river flow. I love them because they are more docile than most damselfly species. Even though my face was only a few centimeters away when I shot them, and maybe my breath was felt by them, they were fine with it without feeling the slightest threat. You can get that close to them, but they won't let you touch them. Yeah, you have to remember that unwritten rule!
