Too tight in the frame for me Peter, but I like the bold colours and you did well to get a sharp image.

Was this FF ?

Cheers

Graham.

The dragon looks nice and clear and I like the colours but I'm not keen on the angle. Maybe you could just rotate the image counter-clockwise?

Great technique to get the insect sharp but the backgrounds are just too distracting for me in both cases. I'd be ecstatic to have got these though !

Pete

These are special, as is for me. Such detailed flight shots well caught thanks for sharing.

Both superb flight shots, the comp/angle in the second one is better, but I prefer the bg from the first one

Great captures!
