Hi Radomir,
all I did was lighten it in Levels, add a bit of contrast using Curves and sharpened it a tad.

I hope you like it!

Hi Bibhujeet,
I used Adobe Photoshop CS3 for the editing.
Here's what I did:

- Cropped to a more pleasing composition
- Sharpened
- I darkened the highlights
- Blurred the BG slightly
- Got rid of the blueish tinge

I hope you like it!

Hi Silvio,
all I did was use a bit of Gaussian Blur to lessen the sharpening effect, got rid of the noise around the butterfly and then darkened it slightly.

I hope you like it.

Hi Nicki,
here's what I did:

- Used dodge and burn tool to lighten and darken specific areas.
- Used Un-Sharp Mask to bring out more detail.
- I reduced the noise from the BG (there's no noise in the original, but after sharpening there was some).
- I added a frame too.

I hope you like it!

I can't find another Damselfly that has patterns like this on its body (although there are a lot of similar ones).

Thanks for looking!

This is a big field next to the lake I go to (I'll post a photo of the lake soon). I love the effect the polariser has on the clouds :-)

Thanks for looking!
