Looks like Crocothemis servilia to me, HP.
In this picture, you have aimed the camera onto the eys of the insect from a frontal close range. The outcome is an interesting image with the blue sky for background.
The LP version, in my opinion, is a bit distorted.
I am with you in thanking Adam for increasing the size limit to 300KB.
TFS and regards.

Hi HP,
Superb POV! excellent colors, DOF and sharpness. I love the POV here with sky as the BG, Even though this is an unusual shot its effects is magical

An interesting frontal capture with perfectly focused head and wings Haraprasan, the azure backdrop really becomes this composition my friend.

Hi Haraprasan,
Wonderful shot of this dragonfly and this frontal POV looks fantastic. You show a fine perspective against the blue sky and you use the flash (this time) very skillfully. The LP version makes the image larger than life and frankly I think the 300KB will not make much of a difference other than on large formats. Very neat and sharp image with lovely colours. Very nic composition too. Kudos.
TFS.

A striking image of this dragonfly!!
The POV is excellent and I love how you've used a spot of flash to expose this insect perfectly against the blue sky.
Beautiful colours and excellent lighting.
Very sharp and detailed especially in the LP.
Excellent dedication too.
Very well done, Haraprasan!!!!

Hi Hara,a different way to show to show the dragonfly,very fantastic work,excellent under all corners of view,my best compliments for this great idea,have a nice day,Luciano

Hello Haraprasan. The image is so sharp like the dragonfly is molded from glass. Excellent shot against the clear sky. Well done and thanks for sharing. Jusni

Hallo Haraprasan
A fine dedication to Adam and Pablo. This is a lovely and detailed photo. The clarity is great. The bright colours of the head and part of the wings near the body are shown great against the blue background. The focus and sharpness is spot on and the framing is done splendidly. Well captured. Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards
Anna

A superb dedication for Pablo and Adam.
I love the BG sky and the PoV you managed to use to get such a wonderful BG.
The composition just looks wonderful in every way despite the subject being cut half way.
Lovely idea.
TFS & Cheers
