[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Hello again after more than 1 week TN-Abstinence.
I've been on a job-seminar the whole last week and had no chance to look into the internet there ;-(

Today I was thinking about what I can show you - and decided to present this "Beautiful Demoiselle" - Calopteryx virgo - Blauflügel-Prachtlibelle (female).

I were so proud and happy to see it and it was difficult to come closer, they were so shy, special the blue male.

Thanks for looking and any words, bye.

Hi Sabine

Isn't it a shame that we have to work. Wonderful colours as ever and sharp details. I love the textures in the wing. Wonderful POV and composition

How closer can you get than that, Sabine?
This is an exquisitely beautiful image of this damselfly. The wing texture and colours are simply fantastic.
Thanks for sharing this gem from your summer collection.

Fantastic shot !!!!
excellen details and colors

Hi, Sabine.
Nice macro. Very good sharpness and use of DOF. It's seldom to see that all legs are in focus. Good pose also.

Hi Sabine,
Great capture full of beautiful colors.
Great point of view,details,sharpness and blurry BG.

Hallo Sabine!
I think this capture doesn't need any word to critize. It needs only to say: PERFECT!

Today in Bursa, it was a sunny day too. But it's getting rain in a few days. It's getting cold. After "weichnacten" I think here it will snow.

Hi.
Excellent work with flash, aperture and exposure. Perfect POV and DOF. Very expressive and beautiful light, combination of bright spot and shadows. Outstanding sharpness of the insect and its details. I like how you have cropped picture and presented it. My best regards and TFS.

Hi Sabine and wellcome back ;)
This is a superb damselfly macro!
I really love the details and textures here - especially all those well visible lines on its wings.
The light is impecably managed and therefore the colors and tones are charming and well saturated.
Also great POV and flawless DOF, all completing a wonderful composition.

Bravo and TFS

Hello Sabine,
What a great macro, so detailed with excellent colors, POV, DOF and composition. Its wings are amazing, look at this sharpness... This is great with excellent lightning and exposure. I don’t have any Damselfly in my gallery as I never been able to catch one… Thanks,

La abstinencia siempre es buena para disfrutar mucho más del momento de terminar con ella Sabine... ;-)
Bella macro de tan delicada libélula con colorido y detalles maravillosos sobre todo de sus intrincadas alas.
Me gusta el contraste logrado sobre el fondo oscuro con buen desenfoque y la correcta iluminación, incluyendo el uso del flash.
Completa un muy apropiado encuadre bien ajustado alrededor del insecto.
Cheers!.
Ricardo

The abstinence is always good to enjoy a lot more than the moment to finish with her Sabine... ;-)
Beautiful macro of so delicate damselfly with colors and wonderful details mainly of their intricate wings.
I like the contrast achieved on the dark bottom with good out of focus and the correct illumination, including the use of the flash.
Complete a very appropriate framing very adjusted around the insect.
Cheers!.
Ricardo

bonjour sabine

Salut Sabine

Liebe Sabina,
das Bild gehört zu den Highlights von TN. Nachdem ich das gesehen habe, werfe meine eigenen Libellenbilder gleich weg--- aber mache im nächsten Jahr neue, bessere, nach Deinem Vorbild.
Mit herzlichem Gruss, Dietrich

Hi Sabine.
What a wonderfull picture of this beautiful lady. Sharpness is very good as the POV is. It makes me looking forward to next summer where we can make more beutiful pictures of dragon- and damselflys.
Thanks very much.
Gr. Hans

Hi Sabine,
The texture of those wings are just amazing. I can´t stop looking at them. The color of the damselfly is also really gorgeous, especially the thicker part of the body. Great sharpness and very beautiful composition.
TFS,
Niek

Hallo Sabine,
so jetzt habe ich mir auch mal Dein "Weibchen" ein wenig näher angeschaut. Wie üblich hast Du Deine 350er voll ausgereizt. Also tadellose Schärfe, Tiefenschärfe und sehr schöne Farben. Danke für dieses sehr schöne Sommerfoto. - Frage: hast du schon ein passendes Weihnachtsfoto?

Beautiful capture Sabine.
This damsel just flies out of the frame at you :)
Happy Holidays!
