Superb details and composition. Top-class as always!

Big cleanness of your dragonfly, if I can allow, it is a pity that the plane rear doesn't contrast enough with your dragonfly, Very great shot Gert

Now this is serious show off work. The LP is remarkable in clarity, DOF and details. I though mine was nice but this is simply the best. Gert... this rocks!

Alas, I will settle by bill asap.

I recon you have got the ident spot on for this female, we only get it on the west coast of scotland.
She is very well seen and the angle of view suits this image well , nice one Gert.
