What a unique catch, Elroyie. Beautiful positioning of the wings, delicate details on the dragonfly, and a quite special light you captured here. The background is indeed ideal to enhance the subject. Beautiful photo.

A real beauty Elroyie. Perfect dof, wonderful colours, excellent composition and well blured background. Great capture. Looks like a darter of some kind but one we don't have in Denmark, theat's for sure.

Beautiful shot. The lighting is soft golden and the dark background makes a perfect foil to show off the golden glistening wings. Good job!

What a ballet dancer ;-). Beautiful colours, fairly good DOF (tail and some wingtips outside), good sharpness and nice backlighting.

Very nice colourful image Elroyie, this pose if I understand it we only see in warm climate dragons, they sit with their rear pointing into the sun, the idea being less body is exposed so staying cooler.

beautiful colors and very good light. The dark background enhances your subject tremendously. details, specially the wings, are outstanding all over, due to a deep DOF. It's instructive but also very artistic. A very good shot!

What a marvelous photo! Bravo for the colors, sharpness, and the subject is perfect. Maybe little blur on the wings, but this is a so hard photo to take...

The light and colours are fantastic, very rich browns and golds. The details and sharpness are great too. I haven't had much luck photography dragonflies, they don't sit still for very long!! Well done :)
