The larger image is outstanding!! Great detail, a real winner IMHO. The way you handled the BG is a big plus.
Thanks for sharing.

Excellent quality & the techs look very good Angela.
Great head turn/pose appealing monochromatic look too.
I get these regularly at our pond when the bugs are abundant..
They're fun to watch as they jump off from their perch & hit the water

The larger version shines! The whole image has a sepia tone look to it...pretty neat. Nice pose, head turn and details. Sharon

I like the mesquite thorn by the claws - a touch of environment.
