My heart, my heart...lol! This is absolutely perfect in every aspect, Ms T! A stunning presentation of a head-on look into this magnificent creature. I'm pretty sure this is a four-spotted pennant of which there are many colors - you happened across the most beautiful blue specimen I've ever seen! You lucky duck, you!! :) :) #12025199

I too LOVE this image, Terry. I am a big fan. The clarity and detail on the dragonfly is amazing. What can be improved? Just do a bit more retouching in the lower right to totally hide the iris or whatever was there. Hope that helps! #12031685

Thanks everyone and thanks for the tip, Jim! You're right. I should have blurred or cloned in that corner to remove the distraction. #12031698
