Beautiful image of this dragonfly on the cattail reeds. You have a pin sharp focus on this one showing off the fine detail of its wings and body. Nice shot with a nice pleasing bg and captured with fine camera techs. Your fishing lake sounds like a great place to go to for photos.

Comment from Mitcham
An excellent macro shot Wille. It has good colour and detail. Compositionally it is on a third but I cant help feeling it may be better with a crop on the left to about halfway across the darker area. I do find the redand yellow area a bit of a distraction. Mitch

Thank you! I can maybe clone out the yellow.

Comment from Ginger Triplett
I really like this photo.
The focus and cripness of it are very nice. Great perspective, such a nice angle. The diffused background is a perfect, allowing your eyes to remain focused on the dragonfly.
Really good contrast/lighting.
