    A beauty, Jon! Excellent overall sharpness and detail on the damselfly, soft light, nice comp, and a clean background.

    Lovely pose with food in its mouth, well captured and presents. Background, lighting and details are all perfect.

    The diffused light is nice. I like the pose. Wish the perch was more in focus. But that's the way she goes.
