OMG what a great shot! Looks like some kind of group sex. I love how the two in the middle hugs each other.

That is realy odd, I thought there was a reflection happening at first,
It looks almost like they are playing the chicken game, where two teams have someone sitting on someone elses shoulders,
meet to try and pull one down.

Wow, this moment looks totally surreal, which is one of the reasons that makes this photo so great. I love that the background is so dark the blue stands out like this. All in all you were very lucky to stumble upon this and get the chance to take a photo. And you did a really good job catching this.

The luck of witnessing something that special, and having the potential to bring it to other eyes with such beauty and grace and quality of image...it takes a good photograph but I would presume with a very sensitive eye and soul.

A minor point, they're damselflies. But that doesn't take anything from the fact that this is one of the best insect behavioural shots I have ever seen.
