I used Topaz Clean and Adjust on this one.

Judy, this is really cool! It reminds me of the painting style called "photorealism". I like the nice sharp DF and foliage against the blurred background. Good amount of blue on the body, very tasteful. Good job!

Lovely details maintained in the dragonfly. The whole image has a lovely light and airy feel to it which I like, especially the lines in the stalk which show up well. Shows a sensitive touch.
Nice image and appliction, Judy.
Might have been nice to have a little more room on the bottom and left to offset the subject, but nice as is.
Judy, I think you used the perfect filter for this. Nice color balance and composition.:)
Thanks for the comments everyone! I was impressed with the way the Clean filter worked on the stalks and wings in particular. The photo was shot with my Canon 100 - 400 IS L.
Awesome, Judy! Wonderful touch with the filters. The reed top looks almost metallic. Love it!
Very lovely effect, Judy. Looks beautiful on the dragonfly. I do wish the BG was less busy though.
