Hello again,
today I'd like to present you this beautiful dragonfly ... modified to dreamy artwork ...
I already posted the original shot in TN, to compare please click here.

The name of that dragonfly is also adapted for the result here: Flame-winged Darter (Sympetrum flaveolum, Gefleckte Heidelibelle).

I realy can see some flames here, the colours are glowing - but perhaps I only think so because of my big wish it would be warm summer outside ...?!?
Again we have lots of snow and it's still snowing.
In the last weeks we had temperatures about -20°C, brrrrrr. So I was searching for a shot warming up my heart - and also yours, as I hope ...
Have a wonderful sunday ...

Haha... great pp-work. I love the one on TN! Thats the real thing!
But to show that his name fits the dragonfly is a good idea!!

Hi Sabine,

Bonjour Sabine,

You know we are not supposed to hurt animals to make our pictures? Connecting dragonfly to the 550Volts is against the SPA (Society for Portection of Animals)rules.

Nice digital effect, I went to see the original and it looks interesting. I have to try it one of these days. Nice work and TFS.

Wow!!! An amazingly artistic picture - the composition of the dragonfly in the frame is really good and the application of this filter is stunning (I may have to have a play with this one myself!)
Thanks for sharing, and for pointing me in the direction of a new toy to play with.

a very joyful PP work,

thank you for your interesting picture,

hi Sabine

I dont know how you did this but this is a wonderful sci-fi image manipulation to turn it into such a unique graphic impression that I have ever seen, resulting in glowing light out of the backdrop feature, superb job! Very sharp and excellent presentation!


Bravo!
tfs, bill

This is fascinating work Wishnu!
What amazing color and detail.
A unique posting and perspective for sure.
Brilliant.

Hallo Sabine,
das ist ein Vorgeschmack auf den Frühling vo man endlich wieder auf die Jagd gehen kann. Es ist ein fantastisches Foto, so was kann nur jemand mit einer künstlerischen Ader machen.
Liebe Grüsse

PS ** morgen

Hallo Sabine,

Kann dir nach 94 Punkten nicht mehr viel Neues sagen...

Ich habe Fractalius erst vor 3-4 Wochen "entdeckt" und ich finde, die Effekte sind "richtig irre", so wie auf diesem Photo eben. Ich kann mich an solchen Photos gar nicht satt sehen. Das Original auf TN schaut perfekt aus... die Tamron Makrolinse in deinen Händen... toll!

Der Winter kommt wieder :)
