OMG you have been again at the perfect moment at the perfect spot in the waste nature - this again is a shot for school books as it is exceptional and so well done
fantastic angle and view point - your close up allows us to really see the details - clear and sharp - excellent genuine color saturation - contrast and lighting is perfect and the soft blurred background supports the two in action - well framed - well presented

How nice that you were able to catch them out in the open. I think these are called blue skimmers locally. A fine shot with exceptionally good detail in the insects.

Comment from Charlie Newman


Beautifully done composition. Focus is super sharp showing very clear details of both dragonflies. The softened, blurred background serves very well to show of the details of the wings. This is a great contest entry. Good luck.

Ha! Haa! After the 'job' is done, they have started quarreling I think! Good observation. Great looking close-up shot! The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

Comment from Lorafina


What do a couple of skimmers need to do to get some privacy around here? Haha... Just joking! I can't believe how much detail I can see in their faces, bodies, wings, etc. thanks to excellent focus. Interesting stem they are on... it almost seems to be coming to life with its little sprouting roots. Well captured by a master photographer!

This photo s fascinating, the detail and color is great. I love the hyper focus in the foreground and the softer focus in the background. All around, great job
