Waving Hi

I went swimming in the river for the first time this year yesterday. It was very hot, and after I had attempted to capture photos of the blue dragonflies from the sand (and failed miserably), I slipped into the water (sitting on a nettle on the way in) and waded ou tot he middle of the stream. I was easily able to get fairly good shots from here, although they weren't going to let me get as close as the blue-eyed damselfly did a couple of days ago.
Afterwards I slipped into the water and cooled off, floated, and just enjoyed the fact that it is summer.
