great pose and nice BG, the catch is a plus, head details don't look great however did you apply noise reduction to the bird?

Lovely catch and background. Ditto Arash on the noise reduction.
Well captured!
Great action capture.Lovely.
Allen, thats a fair size dragonfly he caught there, and he's given you the perfect pose to show it off. I dont think you have lost IQ from NR, I feel your ss has let you down.
Not a good day to be a dragonfly, I guess. Good angle and BG. The critical focus seems to be behind the head....feet and wings appear much sharper.
Thanks everyone for your comments. I was wondering about the sharpness of the image and I guess it just does not cut the mustard.... This vertical crop was from an horizontal image and I imagine the crop size is what is causing most of the softness.
Allen, I would love to have one of these images in my collection. I agree the image is a bit soft and that's too bad as you really did nail the shot otherwise.
