Surely you jest! Each is a unique, one of a kind shot and yours are some of the best.
JeffJS - I'm surprised. I figured you would have been able to shoot a damselfly or three along the way. They're not easy, but same as mentioned already, I just watch for them moving around then try to stay still for a minute, sometimes I have to move to them, slow and easy, sometimes they land very close once they get accustomed to me being around. But once a damselfly lands and sits still for a minute, it's usually not too hard to get within macro distance.
Here's a tiny bee I shot a while back, less than a half inch long. I got a number of shots of different tiny bees last summer, but very few this year. Due to drought, very few flowers and insects this summer. My usual macro rig, Lentar 135 and Vivitar extension tubes.
