    I captured this image in my backyard when the dragonfly was using a Blue Agave for a perch. I had to get low to get the angle I wanted, the background is an overcast sky. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

    I like this very much the angle is pretty much ideal for DOF. I think a little Clarity would enhance the dragonfly.

    Nice high key image here. Like the composition and the perch.
