I took a lot of shots if this dragonfly. Turned out a lot harder than I thought (it's about 2cm long)also the highlights were tricky - hence why there are still some there.
Cropped slightly.

Well captured - looks like a gymnastically inclined dragonfly.
rgds,

Looks great to me, Bean! One of the best macros I've seen here. I like the interesting 'pose' of your model! Kind of like, 'Whoo! A bit windy here!'

Excellent capture, patience has paid off for you.
I tried to take a shot of a dragon fly today - *sigh* I was not able to get the shot. So I know how hard it was to get the shot.
He does look like he is caught in a wind tunnel or something and holding on for his life .... haha
TFS, Tracey

It's a stunner, love the colour and the "action" a balancing dragonfly indeed... good to see you back on here mate
cheers

Good macro shot, nice colors. I understand your note as I have also took pictures of dragonflies and it is not at all so easy.
