Nice colors and the placement of the perch and the subject.

Can you tell me how much was the crop ?

Joe this is just beautiful well done, I like the angle, DOF and colours, the background is subliminal.
(Have you been monkeying around the tip of the tail?)

Hi Krishna, pretty big crop. I could only get about eight to ten feet from the dragonfly. Thank you for viewing and commenting.

Hi Jon, nothing done to the tip of the tail. In the lower left corner I did remove a twig. Thank you for viewing and commenting.

Nice pose this guy gave you. Like the light as well.
