Fantastic shot. Really like the back light, and the detail in the wings.

Agree with Rob nice backlighting and the detail in the wings is amazing. I would be happy with that one Tim.

Wondered when we would see some Dragonfly shots from yourself.
Great BG setting off the wings with the light streaming through. Genius.
