Well, if this is a first try, it looks really promising ;-) Excellent details on the head and upper body, good colours. It looks like a darter, any idea which specific type of dragonfly it is?

Buena captura David... más conociendo que era tu primer disparo con la lente.
Creo que la falta de foco en algunas áreas debe tener relación con ello.
El detalle y tamaño de los ojos es muy bueno... realicé un workshop, para tratar de corregir la mancha en uno de ellos... espero sea de tu agrado.

Good capture David... more knowing than was your first firing with the lens.
I believe that the lack of focus in some areas must have relation with it.
The detail and size of the eyes are very good... I made a workshop, to try to correct the spot in one of them... I hope you like it.

Now I understand the compound eye for it is written ... "The compound eye consists of 12-1000 ommatidia, little dark/bright sensors" ... Amazing Macro Elroyie.

Good macro Elroyie.
Congrat to the new lens, it is great and
the ext. tubes works fine.
Nice colours and good details.
Is the IS working with the tubes ?
Well done.

Very nice one Elroyie,
Ther are a some thing I like on this super macro, the eye is super, the hairy life is super, and the looking through the wings I really like, you did a very good job here.

The lens combination seems to work very well, a lot of detail, even down to the dust on the hairs, the bright area is normal with dragonfly eye's and represents where the sun is . It lookks like a darter type if the body length was about 40cm long then it could be one of the white-faced darters (Leucorrhinia)

Great macro David
I just don't like that mark in the eye and I've done a WS to fix it.
Hope you like it

This is truelly sa lovely macro shot. The details are very sharp. I think the WS was a valuable ammendment to the photo.
