Nice image balance and technical method to keep entire subject in focus. Is there any info on the technique in other forums?

Well done Fabs.

[Bob Miller]

Love the image...especially the background. That's one strange colored bug!
Hard to believe this is full frame with no cropping. I will have to get out the same lens and go hunting for these guys

Jeff, the tutorial is on the macro Forum, and O believe it's here in the current assignment thread.

Beautiful job on the damselfly Fabs,
The colour of the leafs and BG are phenomenal and really make this photo unique.

Fabs, Love the colors on both the BG and damselfly! Great job!
