Hi lens. A good inflight shot of the dragonfly. I like the way you can see the wings beating. good colour and a nice POV/DOF. well done TFS.
Nick..

Bonjour,

Bravo ca n'est vraiment pas facile a réaliser.

Bien joué.

salut lens
pas évident de prendre une libellule en vol quant on connait la vitesse de leur vol, belle prise et le mouvement des ailes est génial, excellent travail ce n'est pas la peine d'acheter le mark IIIIII

Hi Lens. Nice photo in action. Very sharp and fine details of this insect. I like the wings and his face. TFS. Luis52.

Hello Lens,
Here I am...:-)
From your two in flight dragonflies I prefer this one; I'm not a seasoned in flight dragonfly photographer so I can only critique your image to a certain extent. I think the target must be: body sharp and blurred wings. The POV here is difficult and you did need a lot of DOF...
Nevertheless you managed very well; I like the blurred wings and the coloured background as well.

Splendid close-up shot of this insect. Very sharp details with fine focus and colours.
Best wishes,
Achim

Hi Lens

Good attempt, this is really hard to do, especially front-on.

Chris

Hello Lens I'm impressed good work with manual focus nicely composed tfs rgds Necip.

Bonjour cher Aleks, bien sur que si j'ai vu ton 2eme essais mais je n'avais plus de point a te donner et je ne voulais pas te laisser une critique sans une appréciation verte foncée.
En effet je trouver ce 2 ème shot bien réussi, avec une mise au point pas si approximative que ca, surtout en manuel !!!
la DOF est beaucoup plus importante que sur ton premier essais, je trouve que c'est une photo bien réussie
un seul regret c'est de ne pas voir les données de l'appareil
bien joué Aleks,
amicalement,
Pat

Hello lens,
I'm so superised that this photo's taken by iso 800.
This is very nice shot with beautiful pose of Aeshna cyanea. I really like it.
Well done and TFS,
Kevin

Hi Lens,

Great shot of an extremely difficult subject matter. Quite a difficult one to get the composition right, and I'm not sure I'd have known where to start. However, this works really well so you must have got it right.

Kind rregards,

Mike

Hello Lens,
Pretty good capture of Aeshna in flight. I like the shape of the wings and the colours are fine. Sharpness could be better and I find the background too busy in colours. A good try though.
TFS and regards, Ulla

Bonjour Lens.
Sans doute, c'est une prise très difficile à réaliser car cet insecte bouge beaucoup trop vite. Belle netteté.
Amitiés.
Antonio.

I really like this in-flight capture. The body has excellent details and the composition is super.

Hello Aleks,
Beautiful. TFS.
Best wishes.

I know how hard this shot can be. This is something I try a lot, but seem to always underexpose...or miss completely.
The focus and the wing motion is fantastic.

Hallmark Of Photography! Keep It Up!

Ottimi colori, nitidezza, tonalità e composizione.

Grazie, ciao, Emanuele

Hi Lens,
Excellent POV along with color and detail. Very well captured.

TFS
Jim

Bonjour,

Pas mal réussie cette photo, surtout avec une mise au point manuelle !
Bravo !

Liliane

Hello Lens! Amazing composition. Excellent lightness and sharpness. Very original capture. Regards!

I think "WOW!" pretty much somes that one up! Your DOF is excellent and i can't the fact that it's in flight makes it all the more amazing! TFS!
