This metallic glass print captures a Common Bluetail damselfly paused in a shaft of sun on a weathered log, its electric blue body glowing against a soft rainforest blur. The delicate wings hold a quiet tension, and their translucent shadow falls like calligraphy across the timber, drawing your eye.
Photographed near Broken River in Eungella National Park, this tiny hunter is part of the lively world around the water’s edge. Common Bluetails patrol creeks, ponds, and still pools, and their young live underwater as aquatic nymphs before emerging as adults. They are agile predators of small insects, helping keep the balance in these humid, green corridors.
What I love most about this metallic glass print is the blazing blue captured in crisp detail, the fine hairs on the head and legs that invite you closer, and that beautifully graphic wing-shadow stitched into the log. The dark foreground and luminous green background melt away, leaving a calm, captivating centrepiece that feels like a secret glimpse of Eungella.
