Blue Tailed Damselfly
Canon 10D, Sigma 180mm, f22, 1/20 -1/3, iso 100, Tripod.

A bit of an oldie but Ive been reprocessing some of my favourite images from the past now my processing is better.

Pleasing image Guy and as you say sometimes its quite surprising how you advance in processing so that you can unlock some of those images you have tucked away.

Thats a goody and makes me wish for the spring and summer... the perch really makes this, a colour I always seem to have difficulty with.

Very nice Guy, great colour, detail & comp :smile:

A bit big in the frame ( only joking ) :biggrin: :biggrin:

Its amazing how often you re visit an old image and make it better later on.

Really nice detail Guy and unusual perch.

Great light and composition - maybe a litttle more space on the RHS. Otherwise lovely. Makes me realise how much I miss the summer days.

Expertly executed Guy with superb DOF and detail throughout. Like the perch and the BG, the light really accentuates this image.
