Hi Willie,

Lovely Crystal clear shot except for portions of the wing. LOve the beautiful green color of this fellow. He POPS of the page with vibrancy! I Love the angle in which you caught this dragonfly. LOve how you caught a bit of shadow too. Lighing couldn't be any better!

Very Nicely Done!
Good Luck in the Contest!

    Thank you so very much! I took this from my open car window. They are more apt to hold still.

Pretty nifty green on green shot! I like being able to see through his wings to the leaf, and it is amazing that you captured all the detail in both. Nice background, it gives an almnost 3d look! Donkeyoatey

This is so green that it could easily have been entered into one these Seeing Green contests as well. Really lovely and vibrant greens both in the dragonfly and its surroundings. With the softened background the dragonfly is standing out in the most excellent way.

Your focus is spot on and sharp showing clear and well defined details in the dragonfly where it matters, and the exposure is perfect. You have also captured the transparency of the wings really well.

The cropping is neatly done, and the dragonfly is well placed within the frame. This of course makes for a good composition. This is a well taken photo Wille, and I wish you luck with the contest.

    You are more than welcome, and I think the other one you have will do well in a contest like that.

Through a car window? Wow Willie, how much sharper can you get? This is just fantastic and a super visual impact on this one. Great DOF and love the diagonal on this one. Well done.

Good Morning Willie

Beautiful as usual. Sharp and clear with excellent details. Love the Boca.

Have you finished your move to Florida?

I use several Topaz falters also and really like Topaz.

    Thanks for a good review and high score! Our house has not sold and until it does we are staying in Kentucky. I have doubts about it selling now since it is in mid summer.
    I think Topaz is a great program and it is reasonably priced.
