Jeez! Get a load of the details on the wings! Superb! Great capture all around. The wings draw me in and keep me interested. I like the eyes a lot too. You're a dragonfly whisperer...they never sit still long enough for me to catch them. And what good work you do in capturing them! Fantastic.

Excellent capture Lee, seeing the Dragonfly from this angle as a magnetic effect in that it draws the viewer in, it demands that you look at it in detail. And what detail, those wings almost a mirror image, the black and tinges of gold markings, with hints of other colours. It always amazes me how those gossamer like wings manage to stay in one piece, they look as if the slightest breeze would decimate them. #;0) @ chipka and his Dragonfly whisperer, I think he has something there. Superb work. Bravo!!!!!
