    Hey Carlo,
    not totally sure as the species does differ around the world but it does look a bit too magenta or red on my monitor. I like the wing motion blur and comp.....it's just a little bright and to my eye....the colors are off.
    Let's see what others chime in.

    The colors do look off to me but I am not familiar with this species either. I do like the sharply focused head and wing movement.

    Hi Carlo. I haven't seen this species so I can't comment on colors - you are the best judge of whether the colors are accurately rendered. Nice job of capturing this guy in flight - not an easy task! Good sharpness around the head and I like the clean background and the motion blur of the wings especially on the dragonfly's left side. Well done.

    Fabulous head-on capture !

    A quick look at same-species images around the web will show that the colors here are accurate.
