I tried out some frog pictures on top of the car, but I decided to go down to the creek anyway (with my new wellies) and get some dragonflies. Surprisingly, I was able to get this close to damselflies.
Shot as jpg, then resized and saved in Irfanview.

8 - Good capture. Difficult, but even sharper make this even better - which you're likely well aware. Perhaps it is there, just this size doesn't do it justice. Very good 'straight from the camera' shot.
