[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was taken yesterday afternoon in our backyard. It was under a shade. There was no wind so I was able to take this handheld.

I had my camera on spot metering and focused on the eyes of the dragonfly. This was on RAW and auto ISO.

For RAW processing, I changed exposure to -2 EV. Then in PS, I adjusted levels to return contrast, increased saturation, then sharpened.

Cheers!

Hi Pierre, I like the photos of the bugs. Beautiful dragonfly. In Italy "dragonfly" = "libellula". Ciao Mari
