As I said in the "eager to learn forum", today I had some free time at the dentist and could get some krestel and dragonfly shots. The light was a little bit harsh, so I tried this high key.

I've not seen a high-key dragonfly before, and I must say that I like it! I would have pushed the exposure further to the right to get the dragonfly exposure correct.

I agree with Doug...I like that it's high-key but the DF looks a bit off - perhaps it's the neon red color? I think if you could get the color of the DF closer to it's true color it would be a really impressive image!
