Hey Art,
Not sure I'm loving the away pose...but I do feel this unusual angle works better than the last and as in the previous one.....water drops are a big plus. Bg is better in this one too.....while not perfect.....much less distracting. I am wondering why some of the FG areas are sharp while some are OOF......because I find the OOF mildly distracting.....but this is a pretty cool version of a DF.
Very cool dragonfly image, Art. I really like the water drops, especially on the eyes. I do think more DOF would be nice to get more of the dragonfly in focus.
The coolest part of this image is the magnified compound eyes in the water drops...way wicked!! Very interesting overall...I found myself studying the image quite a bit (in a good way!!)
