Buna Bogdan
Excelente pozele cu libelule. Inca nu m-am intalnit cu ele anul acesta ca sa-mi probez aparatura. Mai asteptam si altele.
Numai bine

Hi Horia. Well i can only say i have just started today with my first one but i am going to the river tommorow to see what i can find. Its nearly a year ago that you came to Southern England. Now this is a fine set of pictures you have put together for us. You are very lucky to have the hot springs it must make such a difference . All of your pictures are first class with good detail.and colours. A very good start to the year. Well done TFS.
Nick..

Hi Horia
Great set of photos.I think that I like the most a photo from a right down corner. Also you face to face POV on Calopteryx photo is very interesting. All images are great: sharp, with nice blured backgound. Nothing to critique ;-) I am glad to see new photos in your gallery

What an awesome collection of dragons and damsels, I particularly like your grey eyed hawker on the wing, but they're all excellent captures. Your White-tailed Skimmer looks as if it's only just hatched, is that the case?
I'm envious of your selection of these critters, wish we had more around here.

Hello Horia,

Well, I must admit to feeling a little envious, having seen no dragonflies and only two butterflies this year! However, I can enjoy sharing these that you have expertly composed as a fine montage. There are fine details and colours.
Is it significant how the wings are held?
Some are folded backwards whilst others have them bent forwards, framing their faces.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Horia-

A superb collection, very nicely presented. The larger views will be very popular, I'm sure. Hope to see them soon. Many thanks for sharing.

Best regards,
Bob

Hi Horia!

Your mosaic could be a poster hanging on the wall of a museum or a school. I even would put it on the wall of my living-room. It's superb. You have chosen a magnificent series, and you have put them so well on stage. Even the colour-balance between left and right on every line is fine.

Many thanks for this eye-candy!

Kind regards

Hola Horia.
It is not only luck that a photographer needs to have such a beautiful Macros. But the ability to handle the camera and lenses like You do all the time my friend.
Great colection of lovely and fine Macros
