While Damselflies seem to be popular at the moment I thought I would submit as well.

The Damsel is nicely portrayed Ian against a soft, complimentry BG and is sharp as a tack!!
The upper right hand corner appears a bit busy - I am wondering if cloning the seed head that's intruding into the frame from the right would improve composition.

Nice work Ian. Great BG and the dew is over the top. I would agree with John recommendation to clone out that one seed pod that is hanging down.
Thanks John and Robert for your comments on looking at the image again I totally agree with your comments, I think sometimes I look to closely at the subject and ignore the overall image. I have now cloned out the offending seed head.

Just realised submitted cloned image at only 20KB so now correct size.

Hey Ian, excellent image, the repost came out great. I like the comp and great looking BG.
