Beautiful image! Great detail.

one of my favourite damselflies. A very nice image, perhaps a bit tight in the frame but great detail and light.

I would prefer it smaller in the frame as well, but the plus side of making it so tight is the lovely detail visible in the larger version.

Superb detail enhanced even further by the larger version.

Superb details on the damselfly. Agree about a little more room especially to the right of the head of the plant and if poss remove the vegetation at the base of the picture. These can be tricky to get right with the colours but they are spot on.

Excellent from head to tail. I agree about a little more space.

An excellent close up. The perceived lack of space may be problematic for some people, but what the heck, you can't please everybody so you might as well please yourself. :biggrin: :wink: I agree with Nick about the superfluous veg to the bottom right. :wink:
