merhaba kv,
harika bir çalışma.

KV, welcome back!
This is the best image of this species I have ever seen on TN. I did shoot this one in 2006 in Mumbai with a point-and-shoot camera and it turned just passable.
Your picture of this colourful dragonfly is tack sharp and re-produces the magic of colours on its wings.
Well done and TFS.

A fine capture of this not frequently seen d.fly from a good vantage point to display its beautiful wings perfectly and in great detail Kv, TFS this fine image.
