Hello Pankaj,

Very ggod macro of the dragon fly. Excelent light giving pleasent natural colors. Very good DOF having clear details on the whole insect. Remarcable nice image of wings texture. Contrast between main subject and blury backgroung gives depth to the photo.

Thank you for sharing,
Cristian

It is a Slender Skimmer (Orthetrum sabina) dragonfly, Pankaj. I have shot this fellow quite frequently, so I know this species.
You have captured this one from a very effective point of view. The diagonal orientation of the subject looks good. The focus is sharp and colours are natural.
TFS and regards.

Hi Pankaj

Excellent shot! I really like the POV (and moment) that you have captured. The wings covering the eyes looks really nice. Details, colors, light and BG are amazing.

Well done and TFS

This is a very good shot of the Slender skimmer. Nicely perched against the blurry background for a clean sharp image. Well done and have a wonderful weekend.

I can appreciate the way you captured this one with the wings forward and yet depth of field not lost at all....and in the diagonal image adding to the composition done so well...We shall have to call this the "full tail" look...as if he is modeling..Nicely done Pankaj!

Hi Pankaj,

A wonderful close-up of this dragonfly. An unusual view with his wings in front of him. Amazing colors and details - the tail is just fantastic. He stands out very well from the background.
