    Bet you were pleased wit this one! It's a beauty, I like every thing the pose and the focus and colours all tip top.
    Maybe increase sharpening a tad the the very tip of the tail and the head??

    Hi Allen. Well done shot, like BG tone, wings position and DOF. TFS.

    Cheers,
    Miro

    The red in the background is great, and the creature is wonderfully captured. Perhaps a bit tight, but on the internet I do like to see as much of the dragonfly as possible...

    The overall earthy tones as well as the green in lower right corner make for a very nice colour combo and overall setting. I'm really digging the sheen on the wings.
