Hi dear friends,

Photo place : Abbasabad Tonkabon town in the North of Iran.
I took this shot hardly with my camera, because this insect was very small.

Hope you like it.
Best regards
Saeed

Hello Saeed,
This is a really outstanding capture! It's both beautiful and funny, the rain drops matching the eyes of the Damselfly. Excellent sharp focus on the eyes and lovely colours. A very fine composition.
Many thanks and best wishes, Ulla

Hello Saeed,
You've done and excellent job on this one focusing perfectly on the head and drop of water.
Although such a damselfly is not the biggest of animals to focus on it surely also is not the hardest one.
Composition with the diagonall lines of the grass and damselfly is very good while sharpness, lighting and clarity are excellent.
Colors and color contrast are wonderful and so are details.
Love the frame and the tones in the background against wich the damselfly and grass do stand out beautifully are pleasing.
Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards,
Harry

Hi Saeed,
Beautiful dragonfly with such vibrant colours and sharp details. The focus is spot-on on its head and the lighting is perfect. The dew balls add superb effect with the green grass blades. the BG looks fabulous and highlights the subjects well. Excellent POV and very nicely composed. Kudos.

Hi Saeed, my friend!
It's REALLY the most fascinating damselfly capture that I've seen - as combined with the water droplets.
Greetings and best wishes!

Hello Saeed !
This is a wonderful picture ! First because the Dragonfly it really beautiful, with its bright blue color, and second because you captured her at the perfect moment, while drinking on the water drop. Composition and POV are excellent too, as well as the details and the blurred BG. Very well done !
Valerie.
