She is laying eggs in a little man-made pond in my back yard. I cropped it to about 80%.

Eirini, nice behavior you captured here! Personally I've never seen this before. The only thing I think may improve this image is if there were a little more room near the wings. Thanks for sharing!

Awesome capture and good timing! I agree a little more space to the right and a bit less to left would improve the composition.

Great capture, Eirini!. Good focus on the dragonfly. Agree with others re more room around the wings.

I tried to give more room above the wings...I could give a little bit more, but then I would lose the reflection. I also moved it over to the right as much as it would go. Thanks for all your suggestions!
