flora Lily & the Dragon

A dragonfly finds a pretty place to rest.

6/6

It is unnecessary to comment on the beauty of this photograph. You are fortunate to have had the opportunity to shoot in this wonderful area. The lighting of this shot is perfect, revealing every detail. The softness of the background, thrown out of focus by DOF works well insolating the lily and dragon fly. My only word of advice would be to crop the photograph at the right to balance the composition and center the subject.

 

Besides cropping the photograph I also cloned out a little piece of a lily pad at the lower right.

Thank you....I do like that crop. I was afraid that might be cutting too close to the dragonfly's face, but now that I see your version, it does look more balanced. :-)

Wonderful moment chosen to press the shutter, and exposed just right. I may say I like the cropped version a little more, but that is only a finishing touch... Jiri
