Macro of a Common Darter Dragonfly, resting on a wooden fence last summer and being very tolerant of my camera being poked in its face!

Quel magnifique gros plan de libellule, on devine même la stucture des yeux composés. La profondeur de champ est excellente, beau travail.Didier.

very welcome Matt,
I like the macro very much. The composition is very nice, the details are very good, you can almost see the lenses in the eye. The crop you made is good. The pov is very good, well it is a very good darter shot, that can I tell you, Self I have the fuji 7000 also and I made some darter shots too. very good job

Nice macro-shot, very good details and framing.
Well done.
TFS.

Well done, Matt! This is quite the dragonfly, and you have captured it with great detail, color and good lighting. And such dreamy eyes... Congratulations on a wonderful posting, and a belated welcome to TN!

Wow! Excellent macro, Matt! I know it's not easy to shoot a dragonfly, especially in macro. The face is obviously captured. So very well done, great job.
