Beautiful shot, the style certainly has the hallmark of Jo, I would love to get something similar. There is a lot of empty space on the right, I think I would trim some off and possibly try to get a little more detail in the thorax.

Solid frame of this dragon fly. Agree about cropping more. The background is great. Like the web on the perch.

Very cool shot Joseph! I like the curve of the stem, the dynamic pose of the dragonfly, the spider webs, the sharpness throughout, the soft light, and the clean background!
