Making Waves (Gerris lacustris)

Taken near Stockerau, Austria at the end of July from a distance of about three meters with my Olympus E-30 on my 600mm telescope. These guys were very hard to track. They are very quick and the water was also flowing.

Cool. The ring formations are interesting, one would expect them to be circular.
