cromwell1664877587 0 Posted September 15, 2005 I turned my flash off and went for a silhouette look for this photo. Some people may wish I was zoomed out more to capture all of the wings of the bottom damselfly, but I personally think that would've included too much empty space. Link to comment
kkl 1 Posted September 15, 2005 it's great as it is! i am jealous! :) i will have to get a macro lens soon! hehe Link to comment
chriss1 2 Posted September 15, 2005 I usually specialise in landscapes but this took my notice due to excellent technique and optical quality. The DoF, lighting, composition, colours and sharpness are incredibly well done. Wish you more shots like it. Link to comment
tranhuy 0 Posted September 15, 2005 very very well done. Have you tried to rotate the image to emphasise the heart? anyway, just a thought. Excellent shot. Link to comment

thomas_turk 0 Posted September 18, 2005 Camera to the left a little to catch more of the cut-off horny gentleman. That would also place the young lady's head nearer the edge of the pix, making a more strict photo. Back/sunlight through the wings would have made it extra-ordinary. Background still too much in focus. Do insects have emotion or just bonk, after releasing their attracting chemicals, and showing off their pretty colors--who knows. Link to comment
jmcconnell2 0 Posted September 19, 2005 With so many people taking pictures, it is hard to come up with something original AND interesting. IMO, this is one of the good ones, Bravo! 7/7 Link to comment
tristanerayner 0 Posted February 20, 2008 Hey Scott nice capture there, i couldnt believe it when i saw this picture as i logged in, only just the other day did i upload a shot of two dragonflies in the same position! I had a sigma 18-200 on my camera at the time so i had to use the long end and do the best i could focus wise. I actually dont mind the result i got considering, however, this shot is unique. Leaf texture, the pattern their tails make and the great light make this a stunnner! congratulations! check out mine if you get a sec... Link to comment
owahc 0 Posted February 20, 2008 I love the way you have caught this! There's plenty of detail and good DOF. Also checked out Tristan's take on the "same" picture, very good both! K x Link to comment
neda_madani 0 Posted February 20, 2008 professional quality. I like the image for the precise Dof and the lighting. the light in this image has sure been a very tricky business but you have found the right angle of view to keep its intensity from ruining your image. the field of view is excellent too, since there is nothing jarring in the background to steal attention.
