This is my first B&W submission. I have no idea what will happen, My guess would be a lot of DNMC's or low 5's. I know that there will be some awesome images in this challenge, as always, and my editing skills are not that great yet.
Thank you everyone who looked and voted on this image.

I don' think I would be brave enough to take this picture. Plus, I wouldn't have seen the litle dragon fly b/c I would have been looking at the big guy!! Nice job
Awesome! At first glance I thought that was just a log & I thought "oh how boring" but that's really cool! I think the slight grain adds to the "impending doom" that's lurking behind the dragonfly.
At first glance, you just think the crocodile is a rock in the water. Not that it matters, but I'd have given it a totally different title. Well spotted and captured.
