    And the beat goes on... ;)

    Great pose and capture, Ovidiu! I am not sure but I wonder if a slight curves tweak in contrast would bring that top DF out a bit more from the BG. Otherwise...fantastic insect image!

    I'm seeing two different colored eyes - is that how you tell the men from the ladies?

    Very nice find, Ovidiu. I know just how hard it is to find these things with a clean BG. I love it as is and maybe I'd love it even more if you follow Jules' advice. :)

    The repost does look better. :)

    Jules, usually dragonfly/damselfly males and females look very different from each other. In this case, the difference isn't all that obvious but male is the one with the blue eyes.
