Beautiful capture. These are indeed SO difficult to capture facing you, let alone staring down the barrel at you. :-)

This is one of the most adorable insect pics that I saw here. What an actor it is! One can turn this into a cartoon character. 10 of course, cum laude.

a top pick for me, well taken. I like the strong green background, beautiful coloration. I'm betting you ribbon.

10 from me (my only one). Love how "simple" this seems, but it's hard to get an empty background and frontal shot of a dragonfly.
Well done.
