    Great positions of the damselflies on a very nice simple diagonal perch. Maybe a bit more sharpening on the heads? I like that the bkgd is mostly a soft detail-less green, keeping the image mostly of greens, making the blue of the one damselfly really stand out nicely.

    The blue/green combination and well done composition make the point. Would like to see the green BG at the bottom too, however this is well done shot! TFS.

    Cheers,

    Hi Jon. A very nice shot of this mating behavior and you got everything sharp, too! The fill flash worked well and I like the colors and the diagonal comp. I think this strong image would be over the top if the background was green throughout. You might consider cropping some from the bottom which removes the brightest, eye-catching portion of the background.
