Description
My first attempt at color selection. Not my best dragonfly, but I loved it because he is waving! lol. The background (My garage door), was distracting and I couldn't figure out how to focus less there and more on the dragonfly. So when I saw a tutorial on color selection I thought I'd give it a try. And here are the results...
Thank you for viewing and commenting on my previous upload, "Dragonfly 3" . I appreciate your company!
Have a Happy Hump Day!

What an excellent result. Great shot of the dragonfly. Love the image.
Hello mister dragonfly, I am waving back...lol... :) Great picture and post work. Todd
he is wonderful... excellent capture
Great selective color work. I like the wave too. Awesome.
Well the tutorial did some good, because this is so good. He almost looks like a visitor from outer space, with a big smile on his face as he waves hi! - don't you think? Excellent photography!!
Well, your color selection is perfect ! It was a good idea to do this to focus the attention on the dragonfly. Maybe you should have selected the flower too. But this is just mu opinion :-) Have a great day Virginie
Your attempt at color selection works wonderfully here. I've been fiddling around with it a bit myself and have become addicted to using it; selective coloring opens up so much of an image, as it does here. I am sure that the garage door in the background left alone would have worked well, but I do agree that it's better this way, since your focus is drawn directly to the dragonfly, which IS the center of your focus. It's well captured and I love the wave! The colors you left alone are fantastic!
A masterful job! I have yet to try this selective coloring but I mean to this weekend. You really have done a marvelous job with this one.
excelent

Color selection, selective coloring, I have something new to look into. What an intriguing photograph!
wonderful selective coloring and dragon macro capture!!
It appears Mister Dragonfly enjoys hanging on for dear life from any kind of foliage it comes into contact with. You did a pretty good job depicting the winged insect, with its head, thorax and segmented tail hanging vertically, contrasted against the blurred background.
great capture...
very beautiful dragonfly and capture
