Hello Nikos,
This is a very close macro of a Dragonfly showing great details of its face. The colours are natural and the composition good too. Well done!
We have the same camera but I notice you used 'Pattern' as your metering mode. I nearly always used 'spot' metering. Also I find that having the camera mode set to 'P' tends to work really well.
TFS and best wishes, Ulla
