Hi Kevin,
Great picture for this come back!
It's amazing the POV to catch this dragonfly, with that upper illumination that makes it looks like kind of metallic shine.
The eye's details is so good with all that elements and the green color.
Composition is very good, taking advantaje of the insect's pose on the top of the dry branch.
Congratulations, thanks for share and my best regards,
JM

Hello Kevin,
Nice to see one of your dragonfly shots again. The focussing on this Korean species is spot on and the comp and BG are superb. The POV is good too, in order to see the front of the head.
TFS and welcome back!

Delighted to see you back, Kevin.
Without intending to sound patronizing, it is my conviction that your images of dragonflies on TN are simply the BEST. They are just perfect in every respect, like this one you have posted today.
I do not wish to use cliches to describe this picture and would like to say only this: I love this image!
Bye and take care.

This is anothe beautiful dragonfly shot from you!
I really like the details on the head and body here - with all those hairs very well visible.
The colors are also outstanding and that perfectly blurred BG works brilliantly!
Great contras, exposure and compositio as well.
